The climate controls are all wrong too? Looks like a mk5 one blinged up a bit.

I guess because he has got it on a service plan deal when funded with VW you get a bit of deal on the servicing but it has to be on time and distance intervals so every year or 10,000 miles which ever comes first.

Again, in my personal opinion, I don't like the Mk6 cabs.....I simply dont think they suit gents but do the fairer sex. And if I am allowed to continue with my personal opinion, if a member of the fairer sex had a cab (any cab) they would probably prefer to cruise rather than have a GiT. Although having the option of the additional power could be handy !!
Soz to all the Golf cab owners !!

I totally agree with you, there aren't many cabs that suit blokes, in fact I haven't driven the wifes yet.

Hang on a minite,you haven't even driven your wife's car,most of the time I'm now driving a 1.4 mk6 cos my missus is in the GTI.The excuse is its a 5 door for the new baby.I am going to have to sort this out at my end.

The GTi is my wife's car too, and I have a diesel, something not right with all this  :laugh:

Not a fan of cars that start life as a tin top model and have the roof lopped off, needs to have been designed that way from the off to be credible.

Equally a high powered turbo motor should be serviced every 10,000 miles or less

Sorry but I simply dont believe in long life servicing and I dont believe in soft tops. Buy a proper coupe

Yup service plan and yes I would never have a GTI on a long life plan either.

I also agree with cabs should be designed that way and the reason the Eos is a better car IMO.

It's also £30k. Madness! And you don't even get leather or a 510 for that.
