Hmmm, ive still got between 4 & 6 months (doing 80 miles a day) before I start my shifts offshore Eck.

Thats alot of miles on a high end beemer.

I want either a M3 or a Nissan 350Z next & its just not sensible just now. Blazing it up & down the motorway every day will just make it break like the golf.

I also sort of fancy an Audi, like my old mans A4 Avant.....only a few years older, but if I bought that now i'd only get rid in 4-6 months.

Not sure what to do!!

Ive got about 9k saved just now plus whatever I get for my golf.

Suppose How much are you paying per week on fuel out of interest? I'm nearly doing the same amount of miles per day so I'm interested to know what my shopping cart gets compared to a diesel

GSF kit must be diffrent to a full vw kit and the vw repair kit

the full kit for a mk4 is the whole inner panel

and the vw repair kit is a box of cables, with 2 metal glass clamps

There's an Audi 80 on Autotrader for £295, 2.0 4 dr saloon, just the job

Buying old cheap cars makes so much sense, when they break, you can get another one for a couple of hundred quid, which you'll have most of after weighing it in for scrap
