Kent Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 Rust on spoiler, third brake light working, electric windows working, roof bubbling near gutter, xenons working and all the parts like bonnet/arches/doors are dent free as these will be extremely hard to replace as GTI spec!apart from that, mint cars! I just listed a lot of common problems not necessarily expensive or bad problems.. just problems good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 I do however find I can't put standard unleaded have to use super otherwise on cold start it's unbelievable jerky! ESPECIALLY in winter!! Find it kangarooing down the road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jon_273 Posted July 10, 2011 Report Share Posted July 10, 2011 I got 43mpg over the last 500 miles, mainly motorway driving.Agreed, the kangarooing is worse with normal fuel. Only ever used it when about to run out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
