To even it out, mine has over 22,000 on it as I do 350 fun miles a week :-)
Can’t help feeling all these low mileage CS’s are a bit of a waste. The Golf is an everyday car. Always has been, always will be. CS surely must be crying out to be driven. Everywhere! Could half understand it with a CSS as can imagine someone buying that a 2nd or 3rd fun car for track days.
Got a mate with a GT4 with less than 500 Miles on. One of the best modern Porsche’s sat doing not much 
It is a waste of a good car but it’s the type of car that is bought as a Sunday Best or for occasional use in the main. Same as a Focus RS is often bought by die hard fast Ford fans but not used every day.
It depends on how the car fits in the household too. Not everyone uses a car for business or gets a business allowance. Many of us finance and run it fully privately and don’t cover massive mileage full stop but still need a 5 door practical hatch occasionally. To me a Clubsport is the perfect blend of sports car agility and performance but still does family chores perfectly. Mine has had its back seats folded flat for three months and is a very quick mobile skip transporting flat pack from city to coast every week!
In hindsight I should have bought a CSS but at the time they were released I was being aimed by my employer toward a role that involved travelling all over the country so my R would have been the perfect car for the job. Alas, life changes by the month, I dodged that job but things have moved on and on again since!
