Hi everyone it's nice to be here! I'am looking to buy a 03 bora V5 and was curious about a couple of things before I go and purchase one.
How's the running cost in one of these machines?
I know every vehicle veries to one another but how are the bora's? What are the weak parts?
If anyone has or had experience with a bora than your words would be very much appreciated. Cheers!! Mark.

My wife has an 05 Bora V5, and it is a great car. She has had no problems to speak of (headlight bulb blew, etc.), and it is sooo nice to drive.

If it has been looked after, it should be a good car from my experience.

Welcome
I haven't heard anything bad about the 5 cylinder VW engines...
read the owners manual and do as they say
they are a sophisticated european car

Hopefully You won't be on here asking about problems..
Many people on here have liquid cooled VWs...
with good reports...

cheers
