Wow time flies. Your collection video helped me pick the colour of my GTI shortly after you got yours. Definitely has been my overall favourite car to date
The very first TGE TV I watched was the one where you put an exhaust on this car. What a journey it’s been! I’m a massive Golf fan so I’m sad to see it go too, but can’t wait to see what’s replacing it! Keep up the great work, lad 👍🏼
Mines exactly the same as that one, absolutely great car, fits in everywhere you go. Not rapid but well quick enough looks smart, but not stupid. Love it!!
Gutted this car is going! What a car it has been, I have loved it and JEs too. I think it has to be one of the best cars you have! Bye bye Golf but looking forward to seeing what you get next
Hi Tom your incorrect slightly on the curbed wheels especially with VW finance who only charge a small fee like £35 a wheel flat rate no matter the damage to the wheel. Replacement key is like £130. The fees are very fair and less than retail.
Very emotional video, very interested to see what is coming. Going to watch the defender video again for the clues. Didn’t pick up on it last time.keep up the good content 👍🏻. Archie dicking around on his channel saying he’s selling his GT3 RS that he said was a keeper!
Not bad deal for the golf gti,. Though best least was the golf r deal at £1800 deposit and £180 a month over 2 years, 10k miles pa. I found it and put it on hotukdeals about 4 years ago
Tom , thought you would be onto this : Fair Wear & Tear The BVRLA's Fair Wear and Tear Guides provide an industry standard for every aspect of the vehicle's condition on return to a leasing company.
Coming up to the end of my 2 year lease on my Cupra which is a very similar affair. Going to miss it greatly and in some ways wished I ordered another. I got a stonking deal however on a Mercedes E300 coupe. Premium Plus with Night pack. Again, only a few cars released under the price I got. I'm glad a mainstream youtuber has spoken on the benefits and drawbacks of lease, I've covered how to get good deals on these sort of cars a few times. Look forward to seeing what your new toy is.
£7k over 2 years and nothing to show for it at the end... If I'd bought a used car for £7k and sold it after 2 years, I'm pretty certain I'd retain most of that dependant on the make and model of car.
@@TGE And that's the only advantage of going down this route. But again, if purchasing a car for approx. £7k with the right millage etc... Not sure much will go wrong with it! So MOT a straight £30 - £50 and then just your regular servicing as you'd do on your lease/financed car.
Never got on with the manual setup. Clutch overly light and steering also way too light for me - felt like it was floating. Definitely produced for the masses. Did feel a fair bit pokier than 220bhp mind
Great cars and so much more grown up than a Golf R as it doesn’t attract the ‘I can go 0-60 in 4 seconds’ brigade. The GTI is way fast enough and more fun on our roads, and the iconic everyday car.
Can I please ask how you got the info relating to ultra cheap lease deals that come along every now and then? Is it a particular website that you’ve subscribed to? Any help you could give me would be truly appreciated. Keep up the good work on your channel, sorry to be seeing the Golf going, loved the subtle difference the spacers gave, that’s my next car for sure and the spacers from day one. Hahaha. X
Hey Tom, Love the videos and sad to see the GTI go! I am looking at buying a golf 7 GTI though as my only car, wouldn’t leave it stock of course. Would you still recommend this car for a young car enthousiast? At the moment I’am driving a 2004 Mini JCW. Would like to know your thoughts!
Brilliant things . I’ve owned faster and more exciting cars but my GTI is the best car I’ve owned. Plus people are nice and let you out of junctions! Plus they fit in anywhere.
@@lw0121 i do rougly just under 30k miles a year atm i have a ford focus st diesel but for the mileage i do a car just depreciates to much from the mileage i do so looked at leasing and saw i could get a a35 for about 410 a month over 2 years. so leasing a brand new car seems ideal and a a35 for 410 a month doing 30k mileage with class and speed why not :)
Tom, care to do a video on what a looming Brexit might mean for you as a supercar owner, with respect to market and residual values along with investing in the future? Nothing political, just from a car owners perspective?
Hahaha views are down across all the UK car guys unless it’s a big video like a first look or first drive of something popular. I don’t have time for that stuff 😂
Best car I’ve had?

The GTI was the best choice lad
Did you put it back to standard before handover?
@@jamesvidder he covers this in the video
So how to you find deals that good tom? Are they just on the normal lease sites??
Aventador S
Own a GTI and love it - been waiting for this video for so long!
Same to mee ! I have for almost 3 months and is a very fun car!!
Good for a second car at 21 years old? Some people have said it might be too much for me.
Can you tell me what mpg it does? Looking at buying one but don’t want to be stumped with a huge fuel bill after purchase
A few days after you picked up your GTI I ordered one and agree 100% with everything you say! Great car 👍🏻
Well, you’ve just sold me on a GTI for my next daily....
Watching Tom driving to work was a much easier watch than the “ im selling my GT3 Archie video”
Farwell the GTI. Gone but not forgotten.
thats why i love my R, it just effin works. hammer it almost every time i drive it and it just takes it
Wow time flies. Your collection video helped me pick the colour of my GTI shortly after you got yours.
Definitely has been my overall favourite car to date
Rah has it been 2 yrs already? I remember when you showed us it and went to mo tech for the upgrades
You sir are a chaotic man churning while going to work ad sense + work cheque = cash = CHAOS
Lad of course there was nothing wrong with it after 8000 miles
hahahaha was thinking that as well, its bloody brand new
'Hasn't missed a beat' does 4K miles a year..
Yup. unreliable cars should last atleast 30-40k miles before problems occur. If problems occur under then it's super unreliable.
Mine has 90k now and it had not a single issue
The very first TGE TV I watched was the one where you put an exhaust on this car. What a journey it’s been! I’m a massive Golf fan so I’m sad to see it go too, but can’t wait to see what’s replacing it!
Keep up the great work, lad 👍🏼
They're brilliant cars. I have an 18 plate gtd. Done 26,000 miles and no niggles or problems. nothings been changed even the tryes have 4mm left.
Mines exactly the same as that one, absolutely great car, fits in everywhere you go. Not rapid but well quick enough looks smart, but not stupid. Love it!!
Can’t fault my mk 7.5 GTi or mk 7 GTD both great cars 👍🏻
Love the Golf GTI, they are a great all rounder daily.
Prefer an s3 though
Very happy that you brought back the watch series, cause now you can advertise a new watch every video!
Love my gti, it's a mischievous little car and you can't help but mess around in it!!
Madness mate, I actually got mine straight after your collection video! Your new daily has some big shoes to fill...
Couldn't agree with you more I love the golf and my R is amazing and had just about every hothatch currently on the market 👍
Gutted this car is going! What a car it has been, I have loved it and JEs too. I think it has to be one of the best cars you have! Bye bye Golf but looking forward to seeing what you get next
Cool vid Tom. I love the Golf GTI...
Especially with the tartan seats. I'd pick those over the leather seats fo sho!!
How about the new Mini 2020 JCW Clubman. 300+ hp 8 spd. box 50K loaded.

£6120 to hire a car for 2 years 🙈 plus any damage on return and you can only do 20,000 miles... I’ll never understand the handy back market.
Yah that mileage restriction blows, I mean you would wanna drive that thing properly
lynchygt3 well, to buy would cost more in depreciation, so I don’t get your response.
The video of you and your brother picking up the GTI's feels like yesterday
How were you able to put an Exhaust + Springs/Spacer while it's on lease?
Naeem Muktar easy. just don’t tell them and remove the parts before you give it back. simple.
He wasn’t, but churning for the channel lad.
For the B roll at the start you parked outside of KCL which is the uni me and the wheel world go to
I love my gti, I just finished paying for it and im keeping it forever
Tom , thought you would be onto this :
Fair Wear & Tear
The BVRLA's Fair Wear and Tear Guides provide an industry standard for every aspect of the vehicle's condition on return to a leasing company.
Did you get a banging deal on the new RS6 ?
I’m in the market for a GTI. Where (the f*ck) did you get one for 2k deposit @ 200 a month? Any recommendations squire
Freedom Vehicle Contracts often have them for 250 a month with 2k deposit
It’ll be a business lease to TGE
@pendlelease have the deals but they vary depending on what’s on offer by the manufacturer - give them a shout!

Exactly, people that hire these cars are backward...
2 years of use of a brand new car with no mot or repair costs - fixed. Fine by me
@@TGE And that's the only advantage of going down this route. But again, if purchasing a car for approx. £7k with the right millage etc... Not sure much will go wrong with it! So MOT a straight £30 - £50 and then just your regular servicing as you'd do on your lease/financed car.
Driving round London looks like absolute carnage
You must have ‘ticked’ DSG! 🙂
Great vid bro! GTI will be missed... maybe pick up the next gen MK8 :)
Which year is your GTI model please ?
Never got on with the manual setup. Clutch overly light and steering also way too light for me - felt like it was floating. Definitely produced for the masses. Did feel a fair bit pokier than 220bhp mind
Will keep a look out on BCA for the GTI. Could end up in Ireland either as my daily or as stock
My current 2019 GTI rabbit is the best car I ever owned. My former BMW and Mercedes dont come to to my GTI.
Very informative video about leasing Tom keep up the hard work and effort can clearly see in this video you work very hard with how tired you were 👍
Where is the best place to get slightly kerbed alloy wheels corrected on lease cars if you live in south London?
Looking forward to see what will replace the Golf. It's gonna be a hard act to follow.
If I had a lease car I would get a tuning box for warranty purposes and when I give the car back take it out and get it reprogrammed for my next car
Just said goodbye to my Golf R. Sad days.
That's a Cash watch Tom, I wouldn't mind that 1 👍🏻 shame regarding the puncture.. hope there not run flats as you could be looking at a new tyre ?
Great cars and so much more grown up than a Golf R as it doesn’t attract the ‘I can go 0-60 in 4 seconds’ brigade. The GTI is way fast enough and more fun on our roads, and the iconic everyday car.
Do you Red Coats wear you watches on your right arm?
Would a tuning box class as a remap or detectable fitted to a lease car if removed after giving it back ?
What the name of the SONG,,
Babatope Ogunmoyero it’s called up and try
Morgan Williams thanks 👊🏾
Got the exact same colour/spec. Might get a Mk8 next year 👍

New car is a Range Rover P400e ?
I cant believe its 2 years since you got the golf! How time flys aye mate. I hate driving in London it's like wacky racers 🤦♂️🤣😎👍
It’s only flat at the bottom, that’ll be alright
Yeah but no one likes a flat bottom
Where are you getting such good deals? Are you getting a huge discount or leasing through a business?
Question: Is it pronounced vin-che-ro or vin-ser-row? (different youtubers pronounce it different I dunno)
Is it though?
CLA shooting brake? nvm just checked the defender video and it seems to be a Range Rover Vogue
What the i3s for if u just bought another daily
Brilliant things . I’ve owned faster and more exciting cars but my GTI is the best car I’ve owned. Plus people are nice and let you out of junctions! Plus they fit in anywhere.
Yess soo good to see GTI back. Agreed best daily
Bought my GTI off lease. Best car I've ever owned.
Great video, really love Golfs👏
Hi mate i have got a mk7 gti stage 2 apr but it does not sound near as good as this one. What exhaust do u have ?....
Gold GTI for sub 2k a month? They are usually £300-£400 a month... min.
Mr Creative sub £200 on a lease, yes. PCP finance would be different, like £320 p/m new.
EVOQUE IS COMING TO THE GARAGE LADS. Crisps.
Is Archie attempting to grow a moustache 😂
was thinking about leasing a a35 over 2 years as a daily driver doing 30k miles a year lol be about 500 a month would like to know opinions
dZ Jamesss Golf R >
Why would you do 30k miles in a a35 just get a cheap diesel lad

Big thing ,my vauxhall Corsa have around 150 000 miles and with any problems until now !!!lol
I’ve driven a 7.5 GTi DSG today. Utterly underwhelming. A GTi really needs a manual box. Not to mention more power & a diff
It has the e diff
Wow 2 years flew by.
Tom, care to do a video on what a looming Brexit might mean for you as a supercar owner, with respect to market and residual values along with investing in the future? Nothing political, just from a car owners perspective?
What’s the first sound track
You selling any of the parts you took off?
What do you do for work?
Wow 2 years have gone by?!
I drive a mobile car thay are not so strict when handing it back even give you a good condition bonus of £500 👌
I’ve done 7000 miles in 5 months in my fiesta ST, love driving but hate filling the fucker up 😂😂
Love my MK5 gti. MOT tomorrow 🙈
BEAUTIFUL GTI ........great video as always ...do yo have the song details at beginning of video ...cheers bro .
DJ Mayson - up & try
TGE TV your a legend Sir 🙏🏽
Are you getting a ranger raptor
YOU JUST DO THE BEST VIDS DUDE. NO one does em like you. the knowledge that pours from you is priceless. and the Tunes. Fuck yeah
Should get a Model 3. It’s chaos, I got one and oh my god I would never go back to normal cars

Hahaha views are down across all the UK car guys unless it’s a big video like a first look or first drive of something popular. I don’t have time for that stuff 😂

Well, that was tedious. "WHY MY GOLF GTI IS THE BEST CAR IN MY GARAGE" turns out to be a load of boring bollocks about leasing.
YOU STINK 😂
I’d hope it didn’t miss a beat if it’s only got 8k miles on it lol...
Vogue / RR Sport incoming
