Sad day yesterday,said goodbye to the GTD,owned her for 15 months and covered 18k and never had any issues even with giving her a VERY hard life,great car but don't think in reality it warrants being called a GTD in my personal opinion,Changed her for a Beetle Cabriolet 1.4 TSI 160 Design Fiance has always wanted one so i thought why not,Great little engine with the added bonus of being able to remap her to 210 with ease which i might do when covered a few miles.
Out with the old

No, it's not for me. I wouldn't change it for another 6 anyway. It would soon loose that 'new car' feeling.
I often ask my wife how many pairs of shoes and cupboards full of clothes a woman needs. Perhaps you could shed some light on that mystery?

Touché :laugh:
Doubt there'd be any new car feeling with another mk6.
I've never much understood the whole shoe/handbag obsession thing, so not the best person to ask...........do have a few too many dresses though :whistle:

My wife thinks I have to many pairs of golf shoes don't say any thing but she is probably right :evil:

Hope you enjoy the new toy! Got the 1.4 TSi in a Scirocco. Agree it pulls well and very smooth and readily tuneable as you say but don't expect the mpg advertised! I find the GTI more economical except around town - comparison 38mpg v 36 mpg in the golf overall under the same road conditions.
