Great pairing, as an only car a MkV GTi is a tad boring but in your case, it's pretty much spot on, hope you enjoy them both

Thanks, I'm actually really excited about picking it up. Haven't had a hot hatch since I was a teenager and there's something fun about being able to throw it about whilst not doing crazy speeds.

Think you'll find it's a bit big & heavy to be throwing around, that's why I much prefer my 172. Great all rounders though

I always liked the mazda mps. Just always shocked at the tax bracket for them. Great performance mind you.

Local VW dealership had an 08 plate Golf GTi with leather and 43k miles in which I drove this morning and loved it.

Collecting this afternoon

Robinsons? Was looking at that online this morning. I'll scrub it off my list

Yep, that's the one.

Got it for £9750 which I don't think is too bad. There are cheaper but this is local to me so very convenient. Seems in good nick too.

Good choice sir!

Now you're only a remap and those few preventative-maintenance bits and pieces away from a properly compelling little daily driver.

Enjoy!
