Sporty Estate

Have done 60k miles in the car so far without any major repairs. The only thing that has failed is the 4 wheel drive Haldex clutch pump, I noticed this when I started to get the front wheels spinning when pulling out of junctions. This is a common fault on VW cars fitted with gen 5 haldex systems. A new pump cost £240 including new fluid and I fitted it myself in a about an hour. The cam belt, water pump and gearbox transmission fluid were changed at 40k miles. It’s a sporty car to drive and is a decent sized estate.
