The golf gtd is beautiful, I just hope they bring them to the north american market soon there are a lot of VW diesel fans that would love to get there hands on one. Great video

[TheGetawayer]

@SheaClayFarms1 : Yeah, that's what I'm getting from the comments...But isn't diesel more expensive in the states than gas ? In germany we drive diesels because diesel is cheaper and thanks to the better fuel economy, you can save money when you drive a certrain amount of miles per year...

If I ever get in contact with a VW-guy, I will let them know that you guys in the states want the diesels too. Greetings from germany

I live in Ohio, and bought a 2010 Golf 2dr TDI hatchback last October. I have 40,000 miles on it now, and I'm getting almost 50 Miles Per Gallon. Just last week, I smoked a 4.7Litre Mustang, and he was so pissed I beat him off the line, he kept trying to pass me, until I got up to about 90mph in 4th gear, and still had 2 more gears to go. He gave up when we hit 145mph. I had it pegged out at the Airport at 160, it almost redlined. I wish it was all wheel drive, so I could hook up better.

@tafkan77 : Haha, that's an awesome story ! The guys face must have been priceless :)

Many people underrate these TDI-cars, but they have the torque to surprise you.

Thanks for your comment ! Greetings from germany

What's the difference between the GTI and the GTD?

[TheGetawayer]

@Jmoneyy100 : The GTD is a 170bhp-diesel, the GTI is a pertol-engined car. But the GTD shares many parts with the GTI. It's the most powerful Golf Diesel you can get

I would love to own one of these bad boys. It's such a shame that the GTD isn't available for the U.S. market. although even if it was available I would still be without the Euro-spec suspension. I would still buy one though. Great video. You offer way more information in your videos than any other channel does on youtube. Excellent work. You've just earned yourself a new subscriber.

@USAFPilot623 : haha, I am german, my bad :) 

[MikeAnglichanen]

i am suprised at the sportiness of this golf, considering it's a diesel. I wish they would make the dash completely digital and drop the analogue dials all together, but that's just my taste.

I own a GTD, wish i'd bought a GTI, the common rail diesel drives so like a petrol. very different to the old PD engine in the mk 5 gt sport

[TheGetawayer]

@MrInspektah : Well, I drove very fast all the time and didn't care so much about the fuel, so I ended up with about 8,4 liters on 100 kilometers. Hard to say what it would take at a permanent speed of 170, but I think it would be around 8 to 10 liters maximum, which isn't really alot. Propably even less...Thanks for the comment !

[MrInspektah]

Great video.What was the fuel consumption on your test :) ? Can you tell me please on the highway let's say max.speed 170 km what would be the consumption?with cruise control. thanks
