Cheers
#2: Re: I'm Back - GTi 138 mpg?? Author: MattyP, Location: PlymouthPosted: Sun Mar 18, 2012 10:51 am ---- probably depends if it's motorway or town type journeys, on a full tank mine did about 360 on motorway averaging 80mph
#3: Re: I'm Back - GTi 138 mpg?? Author: Steve206, Location: UKPosted: Sun Mar 18, 2012 10:51 am ---- 300 - 350 if im lucky.
#4: Re: I'm Back - GTi 138 mpg?? Author: army-joe, Location: kentPosted: Sun Mar 18, 2012 11:10 am ---- Cheers guys. It will be pretty much all motorway driving. im trying to compare between my bmw 318 which is £85 to fill up and 400 miles if im lucky.

#7: Re: I'm Back - GTi 138 mpg?? Author: MattyP, Location: PlymouthPosted: Sun Mar 18, 2012 11:22 am ---- your getting a bargain for that price mate, mine is the same year, spec and colour and I paid £2800 for mine back in 09.

Really? its got full service history. due a service now thou. the odd few car park dents. nothing major thou. They heated seats in there?
#9: Re: I'm Back - GTi 138 mpg?? Author: MattyP, Location: PlymouthPosted: Sun Mar 18, 2012 11:44 am ---- no there's no heated seats mate but they are half leather, I would highly recommend changing the headunit as the factory unit
#10: Re: I'm Back - GTi 138 mpg?? Author: army-joe, Location: kentPosted: Sun Mar 18, 2012 11:54 am ---- o is it. I'll get on eBay later then n see if i can pick up a half decent Alpine
#11: Re: I'm Back - GTi 138 mpg?? Author: MattyP, Location: PlymouthPosted: Sun Mar 18, 2012 11:59 am ---- would be a good idea, i got fed up of mine jumping over every bump in the road with the standard cd player, you want to make sure that the cambelt has been changed too and if it hasn't I would change it and the water pump too

cam belt was done weirdly at 14,000. Any thing i need to look out for when viewing it?? keys spots of rust or ware in tear??
#13: Re: I'm Back - GTi 138 mpg?? Author: MattyP, Location: PlymouthPosted: Sun Mar 18, 2012 12:04 pm ---- the front of the bonnet, the arches, especially underneath if it's been left to mud etc to build up but being so low milage everything should be pretty good with it
#14: Re: I'm Back - GTi 138 mpg?? Author: army-joe, Location: kentPosted: Sun Mar 18, 2012 12:05 pm ---- Thank you. will let you know how it goes

Well actually i can get 999,999 going down hill with my foot off the accelerator.
I have no idea, my car really isn't too bad.. Obviously if you are doing a 0-60 off the lights I think you'd be lucky to get 9!! I drive it under 4,000rpm and cruise and I see 36 for most of the time although when i am overtaking i quickly switch it off
