Where's the furthest you've driven your GTI?

Furthest I drove mine was the 220 mile trip home after picking it up!

Had the missus in her car behind me the whole way but she wanted me to stay close to her on the motorway. That was a painful drive... having to keep the car at 70mph after just picking the thing up!!

In one go I've only done 170 miles but I haven't had the car that long. Hoping to take it to Le Mans or the Nurburgring some day.

Just remembered. I did harrow  to Aberdeen a few years ago. That's about 525 miles.

Both sh*tholes.

I've done 15k in my Mk5, not in one journey though 

Furthest was about 650 miles in one day but that was mental.. Went from my house to Liverpool then to Bournemouth then back to my house.

From Oxford to Loch Lomond, or the other way to Isle of Wight

Thanks for the replies guys  There's some good road trips going on there! Probably quite obvious but I i'm not driving the 1500 miles all in one go, takes about three days  Including driving around in Estonia, it's close to a 4k round trip. I hope petrol prices are good in Europe at the moment!!

I've done road trips over the alps. Travelling through France Germany Switzerland Italy Austria. About 2000 plus miles in 6 days. Done it over different roads three years running. Brilliant fun. Furthest part of journey each time was Zurich to home, 13 hour drive including the ferry. A lot of driving but the gti is comfy and with cruise control and dsg it was done with ease. 

That's a good drive! I agree, the GTI is a great car for long cruises. First time I did the drive I didn't have cruise control though and that was a bit harsh. Got cruise fitted before I did the next trip and it was so much better!

Not sure if this counts, but in the late 80's I drove my Mk1 GTi from Cape Town to Mombasa totalling 5297 kilometres or 3291 miles 

Yep, i'll give you that one, it's still a GTI after all. Cool trip.

Not very exotic, but I tip my hat to you for that one! That's a hell of a drive in a day!

Cape town to Mombasa must be the winner. That must have been awesome on so many levels (and scary)

Leicestershire to Crieff in Scotland and back is the furthest. About 750 round trip

London to Oxford for a trackday = 60 miles then on from Oxford to Pembrokshire for the family holiday = 190 miles so 250 mile trip with a few miles in some 'exotics' thrown in between

South of France in the drome region on me tod and back again, about 1800 miles, downside was keening a wheel at a toll booth... Meh
