The facts:
It has 201,000 miles
It has a slight dent on the rear arch and scrape on the side of the front bumper, will a hell of alot of stone chips on the bonnet and various other bits of bubbling (rear tailgate and front arches), scratches and paint marks & imperfections - concourse she ain't....
Hasn't been serviced in 2 years (but has only done 3,000 miles) and is due a cambelt service now
the temp gauge intermittently stops working, though VAG COM shows it at 90 so the stat is fine
It's Jazz Blue
It could do with an upholstery clean
Needs a rear tyre pumping up every week due to alloy corrosion (common issue, it comes with 2 sets of alloys, need a bit of sanding + primer on the inside of one of them before swapping)
Passenger window makes a bit of a creaking sound when it closes
Drivers vanity mirror is broken
On a plus...
It has 4 new michelin's and recent brakes all round, MOT till October, recently refreshed boost hose connectors (still smokes a fair bit if you rag it before its up to temp!)
PD 130 engine - still pulls well with 50-55mpg @ 80 and 40mpg round town
Clutch changed at 155k
Comes with all the alloys for both the old and new MKIV GTI design (mixture currently fitted); a bit of DIY refurb on the inside will have these all holding air
She's been my daily commuter, station car, tip run slag, shopping trolley and school runner since Jan 2008 and I'll be sad to see her go!
