Well it would have been even less as I know Lee drove it from the PDI centre to the showroom and that is just over a 1 mile too.

Enjoy, keep that bonnet stone chip free... If I'd had £2000 more to spend that would have been my choice but 3 door..  :cool:

Very nice... I like the shot from down low!

Mine had 26 miles on it  :shocked:
I thought they might have had it out for a thrashing - but then I realised they had a Golf R demonstrator.
I asked why there were so many miles.  Aparently it was to test my retro-fitted cruise control... and then it failed, so they had to re-test it.  :angry:

It had to be driven to and from from Inchcape Telford to the Eurochem place in Welshpool for it to be Toughsealed and then from Telford to London. I could have picked it up, but was both lazy and busy. More of the former! A transporter delivery would have cost £250, so I impolitely declined! :smiley:

LOvely car there, congrats! The great thing about the GTD is the fact that you don't have to have Monza wheels :smiley: I'm not much of a fan of the non-red/chrome piping on the grill, however.
