vag engines can last the course as long as its been well serviced etc and you look after it it can last another 100thousand, but check on the gearbox and clutches.

so 100k is really that bad...
I looked at the a3 and the golfs 20vt and for around 4k there up around 110-130k miles...
got 3500 to spend on a car and the gti is the last option if i cant find a cupra...
But gonna try and get 4k for a decent standish cupra
