I’ve had those in my GTi-P since I got it nearly a year ago now. They’ve lasted very well, although they did seem a bit slippery at first, and are easy to clean. It’s like looking into my car except mine is manual.

Had a Milltek resonated exhaust fitted and yes I know the popular choice is to go non-res but I do a lot of motorway miles and was just after a slightly deeper tone and better look - so far so good.

Not sure which one you've got as they changed what they described them as a while back...

1. Non resonated. Simply one box around the rear axle and a Y pipe at the rear, now called the "race system".
2. Resonated. 2 boxes, one near the rear axle and the other nearer the front on the midpipe and a Y pipe at the rear, now described as "louder".
3. EC Approved. Comes with a suitcase style silencer at the rear, introduced at around the same time as the description changes above.

If you've got 2. from the list, mine's the same. Sounds spot on with no drone at motorway speeds but makes a bit more noise when you're booting it.

I did notice on mine yesterday (first ling trip in a while) that when it's fully warmed up, it's a tiny bit louder than when it's cold - not enough to worry about though.

Fitted new front pads after the wear indicator came on (73k) - 40% off at Euro Car Parts with code MID50.

Also put an adjustable short shifter on, feels like a racing car now   :evil:

Just had the 5 year service and MOT done by my supplying dealer...only a few days left of my 5 year VW warranty now, but no advisories on the MOT this time.

I 💗  this vehicle, but it will be the last ICE car I will ever purchase.

I am nearly 60 years old now and have never owned a car for 5 years before, but I do intend to keep this one for at least another year.

It has only done 18k miles and is now only used for “fun” or longer trips as I am now a convert to BEV (Nissan LEAF 40) - for local journeys only though.
