Fantastic colour, fantastic car.

I have a 5 door manual in isaac blue with tartan interior- which I bought brand new in late December 2018.

It’s the only car I have ever bought brand new- and I won’t sell it.

Mine has a few less miles- 37k- and Dynaudio. Otherwise just like yours.

Gets less use now as I use bikes to get around- but it’s always satisfying to drive. It’s so good.

Mine will lose its “ full main dealer service history “ status this week when I do the oil change myself- but that’s fine by me.

Interested to see they’re still fetching strong money.

Well done @bristolgolfer- let us know your thoughts on the car.

I really like Isaac Blue.
Well done for finding a manual car which fits your criteria too.
The 7.5 will become as iconic as the mk2 and mk5 GTI’s; the last generation without the full on nanny aids but still benefits from the more useful modern tech, plus they look great too.  :cool:

I asked a vw specialist for when it's due and cost they said 3 years or 30k
Rather it done and there no warranty issue down the line of ownership

Yesterday I refitted all boot carpet after doing the rear bumper vent fix.
Gave inside and out a good clean, new Auto Finesse air freshener.

Yeah, Tornado Red is so iconic and probably the best red colour I've ever seen. Specifically for the GTI.

Mine was flagged at 2 years on my 8 clubby, asked the dealer who said it was an error, service is 3 years on them. Was certainly also the case on my 7.5PP. There is a mileage limit which I think is 45000 or so, but not sure for certain on that as I’ve not gone near it.

My clubsport is a 73 0late Nov 2023 reg date
According to vw performance models are every 2 years with no mileage  ( was checked by a friend that work at vw )
Better done than them saying no warranty on the front diff
