Thanks for your comments guys, I think we have all felt like this at sometime or another,
 I had another call today from the guy at VWuk who said that he kept pondering over the outcome that came about yesterday and wasn't happy,
He said that he as been fighting my corner this morning and has managed to get 50% off the repair price that VW had quoted, which I found out was £293.00+vat so the repair would cost me around £230
The only problem was I had to go to my local dealer for this 
He was a really genuine nice guy who I thought tried his very best for me but I said to him thank you for all your efforts but I will never set foot in that dealership again,
He offered that I could take it to another VW dealership, I also politely turned that down,
I rang the Indy specialist this aft who is sorting it for £170

The longest I have ever kept a car is 2 years
I have had this just over 3 years and with all the mods goes, stops and handles superb,
Is it time to scratch the itch and is the grass greener on the other side ??
I don't think it is yet 

Excuse my ignorance but 50% of £293.00 plus vat is not £230, it's £175.80 or have i missed something?

Neil, get the GTI back on a track as soon as possible. You'll know you want to keep it then.

M3's aren't all they are cracked up to be and don't ever get one in murderer black, it is horrendous to keep looking clean.

RWD is fun for sure, but the arse on the M3 is easy to get out of shape and the tyres don't last very long when you do.

Even so, I would still rather get an indy to do it if it was me.

Neil - ugly car.  Don't do it.  Its like a big fat turd!

I know john the GTi on track is a truly great car and surprises so many more powerful ones as you go flying past em  I know I would truly miss it especially when the track season starts again properly,
The GTi just ticks all the boxes for me,
Just been having a moment I think

That's why mine didn't go to the dealers unless I really had to
