34/36 mpg is easily acheivable as is 130 quid for insurance... just because you live in a sh!t area and yours is high doesnt mean other peoples are too.

Sorry but I think anyone 32 years old will stuggle to get insurance for a GTI for £130.

Mpg wise, maybe but 32 tops is around right for a 8V

?????

I thought I was going to see a chavved up car or something ... his auction is good and QUITE realistic.

For my dad to insure himself on my MK3 16v with not even 1 years no claims will cost around £250.

And mine reads 40mpg but realistically thats about 32-33mpg on the motorway ...

So ok, he might be lying a tiny bit, but theirs nothing over exaggerated about his ad ...
