< 200K is not impressive of even worth mentioning  :smiley:

205,000 in my old Corrado.  I will extremely surprised if my Ed30 lasts that long mechanically tbh.

Sorry but the Corrado doesn't count!  :signLOL:

So what's on your Eddy?

Not many, 109K, but feels like it's done 209K!   My point with the Corrado was "They don't make 'em like they used to"  :smiley:

Sold my Stg2 GTI DSG with 156k on, still pulled like a train after 2 yrs. They can take the mileage if looked after, I've got a heavy foot also  :smiley:

Spot on there buddy!   :happy2:

I also run a 20 yr old golf cabby, and tbo, tend to use it as a bit of a skip! Despite being sat outside for 3-4 weeks at a time, it always starts first pull.
3 yrs no advisories on MOT, other than that rear number plate is faded and will need replacing soon. :notworthy:
I gave £750 for it 5 years ago...

Only 120k mikes tho.... :signLOL:

My 23 year old Corrado never failed an MOT.   Get my ED30, stick an aftermarket downpipe on it, and immediate fail  :grin:

214373 miles all driven by me, since I bought the car back in 04 when they was the craziness ;)
- Started bringing the car up to date and renew it summer 2016. Since the interior was looking abit worn and outdated due to no retrofits before last summer at all  :stupid:

2.0TDI engine that's still going strong! Problem with these cars isn't the engine but the rust issues ....:driver: :driver:

My Ed. 30 with a BCS Powervalve TBE with sports cat passed MOT emissions test with flying colours. The MOT tester was impressed by the build quality too. :wink:
