Yeah, Ferrari's and shit cos as soon as you put the foot down your gonna be sitting up there arse and over taking Gallardo's and that aswell.

And watch out for the zib zorbs on the cooling system , There prone to de-hydrating.

Good choice thou, Would have been cheaper buying a KFC Zinger Tower Meal and dropping an XE in it. Twice as safe.

Happy to help.

Only thing id check is usual pug faults, electrics, other than that they are pretty solid, shouldnt think youd have a problem on an 02 reg though.
Nice cars, i had the 106Zest - (yeh not quite a gti i know)

Rubbish, my old gti had 100k miles on it and I done a few 1/4 mile days and drove it hard quite often and NEVER had any problems with the gearbox or any other part of the car
