Last time I was here I had this

i think i heard from someone you had a GTI though lol

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)

thats not bad at all! Best I ever got was 450 miles out of one tank doing a motorway run....I have never got it since. Best now is about 390-400 lol

Oh I can't get near that at all 350 miles was the last tank (admittedly I don't run it right down) never ever got more than 40L in the tank

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
