I don't know why I bought a mk4, i had a couple of mk2's and wanted something more comfortable. Had money burning a whole in my pocket, wanted to stay VW so bought a silver TDI then regretted that and bought the 1.8T.

Needed to take a step back from my Cash burning Jap import Impreza.

Was after the GT TDI 150 but couldn't find a good example in my area with the right price. Mum has the GTI 150 and I knew the 34mpg was acheivable so went to see a nice looking one nearby. Saw It, Bought It, F**ked Off.

Lovely car that I can make quicker when cash flow improves again. Happy Days.

i got mine, becuase it was the best car i could get for my money imo, only had a 2k to spend, managed to strecth my funds a little more and got a good example.

all happend unexpected really, wasnt in the market for a new car but my old one died  :sad: "ford"  :rolleyes:

hopefully i will keep this one for a couple of years,and hopefully a remap in the near future once i know the car is 100% perfect as it is or i get bored, which ever one comes 1st lol  :grin:

Comfort, Performance & Safety

In that order (I think).  It's standard so that may be subject to change one day!

It was the call of an easy/cheap 200 ponies which first caught my attention!  8)

If only I'd known how much ££££ on top of that I'd be pumping into it, lol!!  :D

 Because I wanted one!, the wife wanted an Astra bertone convertible but it only has 4 seats which doesn't work with three kids.
