Got close to buying a gti many years ago as I seem to remember the finance deals being very enticing.
I really liked it but what put me off was the pedal box being incredibly small. I’ve only got an average size 10 but I remember it being very tight. Maybe I had forgotten to take my flippers or hob nails off as it seems like a quibble or excuse not to buy now.

Yes!!
My parents bought a brand new 106 gti in1996-I absolutely loved it
One of the best handling cars I’ve driven with no mods at all.
I used to borrow it all the time to take my young family away for the weekend,and I preferred to drive it in bare feet,as I found that I could almost press all three pedals at once!
I have tiny feet for my size,and it was a problem if really trying to press on...
I very nearly bought my mums old car when I spotted it for sale a few years ago but it had been modded somewhat.really wish I had bought it now-fantastic car.

I must be missing something. To me its an average £1k shed. Certainly not in good nick, even from the pics its obvious there's wear and damage all over.
