Someone has been using their CS as intended. 73,000 miles £25,750.

Mines even higher mileage!

Good. Have done 400 miles in mine since yesterday :)

Thats good - but my commute is a 560 mile round trip! I recently drove to Berlin from Cornwall and back in 72 hours (2000 miles!).

Bootliner is well worth having. Make sure it's the proper moulded "thick" rubbery/plastic one and not the flimsy cheaper one.

In my experience the driver's carpet mat tends to show wear quick enough around the heel area. Rubber mats for the driver side at least is probably a good idea for the winter months. I do think they're a bit ugly and agricultural looking though tbh.

It’s funny you say that cos I was suprised when I picked it up it was a very cheap feeling foam type thing. It fits well, but feels cheap. Why I previously bought an official Audi one for my S3, it was a thick rubber one, much higher quality. I ordered this one with the car on the configurator, it was £74, and I was expecting more. I’ve tried to research but it does not specify the material. What do others think it should be given the not cheap price tag??

Yea I know what you mean about the mats, I’ve kept the carpet for passenger side to treat the lucky people who get to ride in it 😂😂 but mine and the rears I’ve put in the rubber (for now)

and...Another vote for Michelin Cross Climate. Great tyres in most conditions, very happy on rear all year round and suprisingly cheap (I paid £95ea)

Golf mk8 / Re: 2 years warranty
« Last post by Tony Jazz on 13 May 2026, 17:30 »
As with the other replies here, I took it out when mine reached 3 year old point. At the last service [Oct 25] the car just turned 5 years old and managed to get another 2 years cover [warranty, MOT, service, breakdown] for the same price from VW so not bad. My mileage is below average and has a full VW service history which possibly helped? Peace of mind for £30 a month, sort of...!

I had two all-in-one plans on my last car, I think they were excellent value albeit at £30pm then. Even at £40 though, I'd take one out.

Yes, I have just taken it out, in this day and age there aren't many things that I consider good value but this is one of them.
I wanted the extended warranty but the two services and MOTs and roadside assistance are just a bonus in my opinion but when you look at the package as a whole it's great value.
Personally I think you're taking a gamble with these cars if you're out of warranty considering the cost of replacement parts and labour costs.
