I think the official figures for the VW MKV R32 are about 26mpg and that's only if you don't floor it that much. I was driving a MK2 GTI for two years and had great fun with that so I decided to go for a MKV GTI last summer and boy they are quick! It was quite pricey as it's a VeeDub but it only had 9K miles on it when I got it last summer. I think I'm gonna get hammered on the road tax this summer but I'd hate to get rid of it, it's a cracking car.

Also have a '71 Triumph Vitesse that only comes out in summer. Yes I love cars almost as much as the superstars.

The Mk IV I currently own is the first proper 'modern' car I've owned, it was mostly MKI & II GTi's, BMW E30's and air-cooled dubs for me before that. I prefer older cars, more character and a more involving drive but I've got no garage/workshop facilities at the moment so maintenance is a pain and I need something reliable.
Nice wheels FC! The MKII 16v is one of my all-time favourite cars

Jesus Shellshock we are so alike! Buying a "modern" car last summer was a bit of a rench, felt like I was betraying my classic car loving soul.

Oddly enough Mrs FC, as well as being a hoooge fan of the superstars she loves classic cars as well, her faves are Mustang Fastback, Ford Carpi and Morris Marina!
Go figure. ![Razz Razz](https://www.superstardb.com/images/smilies/icon_razz.gif)

I had an 2005 Jetta GLI. It was all black with tints. Those don't look like much, but it was faster than my Porsche! Go figure. Didn't really like VW's until I got my hands on that one...
