About to click over the 190k mark, so will be almost 2k in a month - really cant put into words at how pleased i have been with the car over the almost 2 years i've owned it. Been taking it easy recently and its such a nice drive when taking it easy. Charger service is coming up shortly but almost done a good 30k on it. Love it.

ive had mine for 6 months put about 15k on the clocks (touching wood) only thing that has gone majorly wrong so far is the gearbox , small fire behind dash which was the heater wire catching fire ! lol , which was a polo gt box so probably done 150k before i got my grubby little hands on it !! just remember to keep on top of all the little things that you forget easily snd it will be fine for a daily peace zeeman .

going to be my daily for at least two years (fingers crossed), my sister is driving my much more practical 6n2 tdi, but hoping to be able to insure both at a later date.

Before mine came off the road for a bit of minor maintenance in 2007 it was a daily.
Was doing about 30 miles a day. Took it from 36k to 90k in 6 years so not spaceship mileage.
Loved everyday driving it.
When its back on the road will try and find excuses again just to take it out

Just wanted to rekindle this and see if 3 years on there are still a few G's used on the regular.
I do 40 miles a day/250 a week. bought a polo van to re-shell the engine so i can work on the original shell and bring it back to life with some welding and a new coat

Mine is on about 204k now I think. Its off the road as I don't live in the country right now, in dry storage. Will I use it again daily when I'm home? I'm not sure. She needs work and restoration now.

I had GrayG40's car for ten years as a daily and apart from a dead ECU, it never missed a beat in 140k. Even my wife loved it. Sold it with 170k on the clock and after that driving became a total pisser hence another G outside the house.

Mine was a daily for about a year, did 15k roughly, drove 2500 to Switzerland and back. Had no end of problems, left me stranded 6 Times in that year, has broken down so much I've had to get another car as a daily now and the G is now the toy

Mine covers less than 200 miles a year. I take it out for the odd blast now and again when the weather is nice and that's about it! I probably spend more time cleaning and maintaining it than driving it...
