It’s an outlook that I don’t like, just because it’s a lease wouldn’t make me not look after a car! I’ve got it for 4 years so rather keep it sweet

I’d be the same - whether it was a lease, PCP or outright ownership, I’d look after it as if I owned it :smiley:.

It will be an issue for fellow GTI enthusiasts not in the fortunate position to lease/buy brand new

The person who gets my Clubsport when it goes back after my 4 year lease will be getting a very well looked after car.  The only things I haven't done (which I may have done if I owned it) are fuelling with 98 RON and servicing annually.  My car was set to longer service intervals and I didn't feel the need to change that.

Otherwise it's been regularly washed and hoovered, never launched, only occasionally driven in Sports mode.

I hope whoever gets it enjoys it as much as I have, when it goes back in June.

haven't you misplaced it with "1.5 eTSI 140 hp"?  :grin:

Joking, just funny. I can say, that I only occasionally drive in Comfort mode. haha  :grin:

Haha. Sadly most of my driving is in traffic and traffic light races aren't the same at my age. I'm also a tight b**tard so comfort is my go to mode.  On the other hand Eco is still reserved for long motorway journeys on cruise, so rarely engaged.
