I don't work and have the freedom to come and go where and when I please. A friend asked me to give her a lift to Heathrow and she'd pay my fuel there and back....I said give me your airfare and I'll drive you home to Bavaria. I took my daughter along and we ended up in Italy!

I did 5 miles last week but this week it looks like it'll be about 500. Nearly 45,000 miles in 30 months = 18,000 a year. I enjoy my GTI every single time I sit behind the wheel :smiley:

I want your job!  :cool:

bought my 1st GTI March last year and I've only done 2700 so far - only take it out for pure driving pleasure, i'm lucky my wife has a Polo so it's used for all the day to day running about keeping my pride and joy away from super market car parks!

It's not a Ferrari or a Lambo, the GTI is meant to be driven day to day, so why not get behind the wheel and enjoy it more?

Coming up to a year since I got mine, and covered 9,500miles. My daily driver, couldn't bear to leave it sitting on the drive and go shopping in the other halfs Rav4! I take it out at every possible opportunity! Don't worry about supermarket car parks - just spend some time looking for the perfect 'end' space!  :smiley:
