What's the difference between the gti and the gtd

[ShanesAutos]

@dhns555 the GTD is basically a diesel version of a GTI and has a different bodykit. I believe the GTI comes as standard with a DSG gearbox.

[DarkKing616]

@ShanesAutos VW Australia prefers to call the GTD a sporty 103 TDI rather than a diesel GTI. Anybody who gets into a GTD expecting GTI performance will be disappointed - but if you ignore what the GTI can do and just focus on getting a good, high performance diesel hatch you'll be quite impressed.

[ShanesAutos]

@DarkKing616 Your right, the GTD is a very good diesel sports car.

How did you go about asking the dealerships to do the videos? I've tried a couple of local ones but they always refuse.

[ShanesAutos]

@PS2Gameplays i just tell them i review cars for youtube and tell them what i do in the review lol...its funny because the most expensive car i reviewed was a 70 grand 2011 vw touareg and the dealer just handed me the keys no questions asked haha

[PS2Gameplays]

@ShanesAutos I mailed a local dealership and hopefully I could get a positive answer.

I want to do some reviews as well! It's raining at the moment, but whenever I'll have time to clean up "my car", I'll make a full video tour of it.

[talldude123]

Wow, 258 pounds of torque from a 2 litre? Is that even possible???!

[ShanesAutos]

@talldude123 nah Matt I made it up haha...of course it is especially with a TDI.
