yes its just the running costs of the GTi, as a town runaround ,clocking 25 mpg isnt very good,compared with 40 odd im getting now in the diesel. and the boot space in the golf compared to the passat is tiny. (push chair + family shop is a struggle.
Thats her argument against my case for going back to the GTi.
My case is there is NO agument and that we should get into another!.
I agree with Hurdy, by'd my time, wait for an actractive ed30 down the line a little, give it another 8 -10 months b4 some good priced 56/07 plates come available (and win the missus round of course!)

Phil.

I cant say much. But if you can afford to get back in a GTI (possibly even a ED30) and its practical then I really do think you should get down to a dealer.

You clearly miss your car and it sure was a lovely car. Keep us updated.

Now I know why they didn't do the Pirelli GTI - look at the seats on this.

Phil - you can get your next GTI when you don't need to transport the pushchair anymore.
