not a GTI, but an A3 2.0T. had 21500ish on it when i bought it in the summer of 2010. got about 65k on it now. i've gone back to uni in London and it lives with my parents in Yorkshire who use it as a run around atm. when i graduate (touch wood) i'm gonna get a new car (Cayman hopefully if i've got the pennies together) and this will be stripped out and used as a track day toy. then i'll keep it until i bin it in a corner or it goes bang

That's the plan. Just need to find the time really. Think main problem has been I just use it to commute to and from work. Wouldn't mind a nice induction kit and a TBE as well

Im hoping to actually keep mine until I pay the finance off , sick of only keeping cars a year or 2 then being stung when moving negative equity around!I bought it last october with 18000 on it , now sitting on 23500 , so it will never be a high milage car , still standard just now.

Mines a 2007 non ed30 GTI with a few mods (no remap yet) 81k now 55k when i bought it, I've had it for 4 years and was thinking of selling up and getting a +300bhp Focus ST, but just took the GTI out for a quick drive and now i'm thinking of keeping the GTI and just getting a remap & maybe even going for T04 turbo etc......

I've spent a lot on the GTI and still have a brand new LSD & uprated clutch sat in my garage waiting to be fitted. Oh what to do??  :confused: :confused: :confused:?

I'm not too fussed about the selling at a specific mileage its just when the next car i'm after comes down to a respectable price.  :P
