Description from the seller, in Finnish.

Myydään kuvan juuri katsastettu pirtiä gti golffi. Tiedot. 2.0fsi turbo (tfsi) 200hp. 6v manuaali. Vuosimalli 2006. 281tkm ajettu. Pelittää kuten kuuluukin. Kori. Elämää nähnyt käytetty auto, eli kosmeettisia vaurioita löytyy (kiveniskelmiä keulassa, naarmuja, pintaruostetta.) Helmapellit vaihdettu molemmin puolin. Vanteet hieman elämää nähneet. Ehjä tuulilasi. Sisusta. Siisti ja muuten kaikki ehjää paitsi kuskinpenkistä pieni kohta revennyt auki. Huolto. Huollettu säännöllisesti. Juuri vaihdettu jakopää+vp, öljyt ja suodattimet sekä jarrupalat ja takasatula ja paljon muuta. Auton historia. Tuotu 2019 vuonna ruotsista suomeen, auto jäänyt seisomaan vuonna 22-23, 26 vuonna ehostettu uuteen iskuun ja käyty leimaamassa. Ei tiedossa olevaa kolarihistoriaa. Muuta mitä pitää tietää. Autoon vaihdettu 3tuuman downpipe kisakatilla ja 3tuuman pakoputkia taakse asti äänenvaimentimilla. maltilliset, mutta hienot äänet.👌 Sytyttää välillä vikavaloa P0420, katalysaattorin teho alle rajan. Johtuu todennäköisesti kisakatista mikä virtaa vakiota paremmin. (Ei vaikuta ajoon.) Autoon asennettu madallus sarja, mikä muutoskatsastettu. Apukuskin penkin säätö ei toimi. Vain yhdet renkaat! 30.7 katsastettu puhtain paperein. Vaihtoa voi ehdottaa johonkin mielenkiintoiseen. ;)
