Interesting (well to some anyway) that if fuel was the same price (which it hasnt been for the past three years):
If I had bought a GTI:
50000miles / 35mpg (approx) = 1428.5 gallons of fuel
1428.5 gallons * 4.55 litres = 6500 litres of fuel
6500 litres * £1.33 = £8645 worth of fuel
35 mpg - I wish. Circa low 20s for me
That would be a meaty £12,103 at 25mpg.
