I've got 9550 (ish) miles on the clock, not bad considering I only got it in May!

car celebrates its third birthday next week so may get treated to a diff or some 6 pots

clock now on circa 57,000 miles, its been mapped for 50,000 of those (7k Superchips and 43k on Revo) its probably done 20k running Stage 2

in reality in terms of driver experience bares little resemblance to how it left the factory

First post :-)

I'm soon very likely to buy a 2009 TFSI petrol roc.

My 1995 Celica has done 217000 miles (Bought it 3yrs old with 60000 miles, added 157000 miles), so I'm hoping the roc can last as well!
(Celica has been almost fault free for its first 15 years, only new clutch, new cat, struggles with emissions though!)
