spotted a grey gti, 2door, 07 plate, leather interior @Cantly house Hotel last nite.

Cool - that was mine.  Feel all special having been spotted  :cool:  Apologies for the tailpipes, I know they are a disgrace just not been around to polish them (and the rest of the car  :grin:)

What were you doing there?

You really do seem to get about SteveP!!! Lets see if you can spot me this weekend... should be down and around your neck of the woods this weekend (Friday thru to Sunday) :cool:
You think Steve gets about. With the mileage I do, I see about 4-5 GTi's a day. But never seems to be any of you lot when I post them up..
Had a 57 plate CW GTi parked next to me at the Holiday Inn at Burton yesterday though.. :wink:

I am not far behind you with the milage Vtec, currently looking like 36K a year based on the last 4 months of ownership on the ED30.

I typically only post the ones I get a good enough look at or a photo of, Like you I typically see around 5 a day, today was a busy one with 3 R32's and 4 GTI's and 1 ED30  :smiley:
A high mileage man like myself then..  :wink:
What is it you do mate?

I'm a IT Manager for a big London Retailer so commute to the big smoke 3-4 times a week and the rest of the time I travel to various meetings and  :nerd: conferences.

What about you?

I'm sure I've seen you before Vtec. On the A47 going towards the A1? I was going the other way in my CW GTI. It was ages ago, before you put your TDs on so you may not remember lol :smiley:

haha stealth, sounds like the same dude i encountered the other day - was it a young guy in a dark black gti?

It was dark at that time, so didn't see plus the car was dark (maybe dark blue, maybe black). There are disadvantages to a tinted rear window and anti-dazzle mirror.

I normally work in Leicester on Tuesdays/Wednesdays and travel up M11/A1/A47 in the morning rather than M25/M1, much less traffic, and a lot nicer a drive!
