2.0 TSI 230ps 6speed GTI 3dr

An amazing car

This car is incredible, easy to drive around town, smooth and responsive, with incredible power when needed for overtaking. I average 42 MPG, and have had up to 48 mpg on a long run to Scotland. Driving to work (40 miles, lanes and motorway currently restricted to 50 as being made 'smart') I get 44-47 mpg. I drive fast, and find the mpg amazing, getting 450 miles to the tank. My tyres wear well (Michelin crossclimate) and I estimate I'll get 18k from the front, more from the rear. The climate control, radio, lights are all good. The adaptive cruise control and the heated seats are invaluable. This car is amazing.

On the negative, it needed a new waterpump at 22K miles, but this was done under warranty and is quite a common failure.
