Re: Dirty 2010
Spys are everywhere
Filled it up last night and as always I worked out the mpg - this time I was really surprised - 41.7 - normally I get between 34mpg & 38mpg so that's a new record for the little GTi (If I'd filled up straight after the run it would have probably been close to 45mpg as I've done nearly 50 miles of round town before it needed filling up)

Re: Dirty 2010
Thats Pretty darn dirty! I had mine worse than that earlier this year after 3 weeks without a wash (the car that is).
Black GTI's are always the worse for showing dirt though
