Ime high miles on a car makes a stronger engine if Serviced well

If you run the car today and then again tomorrow you would see different figures lots of variables affect RR results bit of a lottery to a few bhp each way.

Had a 172 from new for 11 years only, ever ran on sainsbury's 95 octane up to 90k never missed a beat went to dyno days and santapod many many times never had one issue think that says it all really. On the few times I did put v power in made no difference at all I could tell even to mpg. Same...

Will be totally fine !! You won't notice any difference a lot of it is placebo imo No you car won't blow up either ! Car ECU will run happily on any uk grade of fuel. Only thing you will notice is it's cheaper to fill up🤣

Must be dealing too !! 🤣

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/202895682162 Nothing to do with me just saw it advertised sounds like a great car all the things that you would want doing or need doing are done and having owned a mk6 gti dsg they are the perfect all round car👍 Maybe of intrest to someone on here.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/202895682162 Up the budget a little mk6 is a great car This looks a cracker and everything you would need or want to do is already done!

You will never buy another manual 😉

Yes

DSG It's the future! 🤣😉👌

These go forever if looked after! My mk6gti dsg had 18k on when I bought it almost 90k when I sold it ran more power on dynos and quicker times at pod as miles went on. Was totally std just get dsg oil done every 40k and keep it serviced if it's all motorway miles it's even better. Best all...

@Craig on here sells most bulbs great quality and great honest reliable seller dealt with him many times over the years 👍

Yep

Great job mate 👍 who built the engine?

Not sure exactly but they have trouble selecting gears after a crash.

Cat d the crash usually f***s up the gearbox on these too.

Met him too really nice guy when he had the 172 kangoo wondered what happened too him did that prick Revels upset him?🤣 he loved giving it the Billy big b****cks to anyone selling anything if they weren't a trader!

Bet your cars fucked now then 🤣🤣

Best wheels ever on a 5 series 👍

That was my point ! I wasn't just bad mouthing the garage just meant that if they have done this before then they should be aware of the issue it will cause and advise you ref mapping and the issues you will have till you do. Also to do what as been mentioned here to help until then.

What reputable garage gives you a car back that won't idle and says "it'll be fine after mapping" !! ?

What mpg you getting out of this and what's your commute like?

Tesco mobile always very competitive too and customer service is always excellent

Change the sender and stat cheap and easy to do that will sort it

Must admit it's a fine looking motor and I'm not an alfa fan can see the appeal of am estate thou a lot look better than the saloon versions.

You reckon you will do 12000 in this before it wears out your patience/pays for itself!!!??? I admire you ambition but f**k me that's optimistic!! 🤣🤣🤣

Totally agree

I also reckon this "if they want it they will take it" attitude has caused a massive increase in thefts. If you don't do anything to make it difficult for them then what did you expect ! all this no alarm on house no anti snap locks and leave keys by the front door is b****cks this is why a good...

Ghost if you want Disklok will put off 99% of thefts imo.

REALLY ! I Doubt that very much tbh they just want an easy quick and quiet in and out. Most are spineless little c***s anyway!!
