Nov '07 GTI - just shy of 80,000

I bought it in July '10 with 32,000 and it still feels as tight now (although there are a few extra mods in there to help with that :evilgrin:)

I have definitely not been afraid of putting miles on it, but as I get closer to 90-100k miles, I do find myself getting my mates to drive more!

Where the hell does he drive to?  65k a year every year (~180 miles a day, every day) for the last 46 years! lol  He wouldn't be doing that in the UK in rush hour traffic and £6 per gallon!

....Very good question but I don't have a clue what the answer is!

I did notice that his driving pace in the vid was rather ambling too. So, how much time has he spent of his life behind the wheel? It doubtless accounts for his portly shape.
