Only done 27k with FSH :D

Im well chuffed, drives amazingly, like a new car does really but I love it lol
 
I had one of these brand new, terrible on fuel and feels like your trying to man handle a wet sack of spuds around. If your happy, thats all that matters to you.
 
Okay so it isn't the best in its class, perhaps he liked the look of one, looks pretty nice imo.

I look at it and see a miniature Panzer tank. That is only because my boss has the estate in the same colour, and it's constantly referred to as a Panzer.

My experience of the MK 5 has been marred by my boss' car simply because it's a sluggish low trim level diesel, and is heinously dull to look at as well as drive. I like your car, just can't abide the colour!
 
Smooth to drive?

Did you drive some cars which were rough to drive? Did you check you were not driving on cobbles when you did this?

What? So it's impossible to get a rough car?

I've driven a 1st gen Suzuki Alto and it felt like there was a 500watt vibrator lodged in my ass, even on a smooth road.
 
I like how they look, I dislike everything else about them, and hated the way they drove/driving position/feel.

I guess if you bought it on looks alone then congratulations on the driveway ornament :)
