Re: Miles to a Full Tank

Oh so thats what that is? I pressed it once whilst filling up and heard it release air, I thought it would be depressed by the pump itself as the tank was being filled, creating the same effect, didnt realise it was an auxillary fill tool. Very interesting!

Re: Finance Fumbles and Exporting Your Car to Another Countr

Thanks for the replies and for the information! I'm going to have a re-think this afternoon and talk it out with my rents and a couple of mates. Then take which ever route seems safest. My main issue is trying to keep the car, I don't want to be stuck making payments for something that I don't even ...

Re: Thinking of getting a GTi

I got 200 quid off and free gap insurance (worth ~£500) and I've had a couple of litres of oil off them for free since too. I only had to wait 2 weeks for mine! BUT it was ex-showroom I think (came with about 27 miles on clock).

Re: new member - Sydney, Aus

Thanks chaps (Edi30 and Auspolo) I had heard it was around that price. That will make a big difference as thats almost 2/3 of the price I pay here. Yeah I saw a big 5L V8 1965 Mustang for sale for $22000!!! I got an immediate boner. But I think I'm going to take my GTi over with me. See new thread i...
