Thinking of buying new?

Oh no, Another (two) bite the dust. 

It’s not a surprise but that is a shame, but @Fredgroves I remember you commenting after a test drive about the engine tech not being as advanced as VW and the pretty terrible economy. But end of an era (ok they were only around for 7yrs and they proved they could do it.

the choice is getting limited VAG Group, BMW, Toyota.

I think I decided some time ago that my current car will be my last hot hatch. With the roads being as heavily congested as they are these days, coupled with the fact that I don’t do that many miles now, a ‘normal’ car will probably fit the bill just fine. I used to enjoy driving - not so much now, and I no longer go for a drive just for pleasure, as I no longer find driving to be a very pleasurable experience .

I'm starting to feel the same way SRGTD, but I can't get that thought out of my head that I'd still want 'one more' go.  Like a gambler in Vegas at 5am.....just one more.

Ok @Exonian I’m going to take your post literally and the advice I’m taking away is that everyone should buy a Golf GTI.

No one can persuade me otherwise

Everyone *should* buy a Golf GTI at least once in their lifetime but not necessarily a new one at £40k+! 😁
