Don't do anywhere near enough miles to warrant getting a derv. Petrol ftw :evil: :smiley:

ok dude wtf do i know  :laugh:
my wifes got an a3 derv iv got 1.8t hmmm she does less than 2 miles a day less fuel if you do the miles or not
Title: Re: Leaving the mk4 section ;( but will still stick around
Post by: jnufcuk on 20 May 2012, 21:39
Haha not too worried about the fuel as it will prob do the same as the golf it's more the insuring and taxing side of it. Over 3 years I would b looking at close to 3k to insure it and nearly £800 to tax it. That's nearly £4 just to keep it on the road. This way I get a brand new car, get it serviced for 5 years, £30 of tax after the first year, £500 to insure. Win win  :wink:

Edit: sorry forgot to say the main reason I went for this model/ spec was because of the dsg box. Looked at the rest of the vag range and this seemed to b best of both worlds  :nerd:

Did you have to give a deposit mate? And is it interest free deal. I was looking at some new vag motors leaning towards a sirocco or a audi tt tho. Seen a few they want quite heafty deposit tho so getting on saving :grin:
