2008 GTI
Original owner also.

Bought it in '08. It now has 43.6k miles. Done quite a bit to the car since I got it. Well maintained and so far it's been running good.

I remember when I bought it I said, was gonna keep it stock, but the mod bug bit me when I started reading VWVortex.com and GolfMKV.com...

Keeping this for the long haul.

No. I bought my 06 in 9/10 with 48xxx miles. It now has 108xxx and is getting a new cam follower and other stuff under warranty. Lucky me.

About to cross 68k on my '09 and I have my 2nd CEL. First was bad coils. This one is EVAP system related and I haven't figured out WTF it is. Two more months and I will have to pay someone else to figure it out to get my sticker.

Love/hate at the moment.

Also need to stop reading reviews of the FR-S.

Woah! I'm surprised to see this still going haha!

I'll have only put about 12k miles on this year... that's nothing compared to the 22-25k miles I did each of the first two years.

Currently at 115,000 miles. Still going strong!! :burnrubber:

BRZ is replacing my GTI in a few years. I won't be looking back.
