the GT has all round mintex brakes, a new clutch put in a 60k and new brake master cylinder and its gone back into the garage this weekend for more work on the clutch 30k later - which sounds like its the flywheel that has not gone
Tell me the car has not been totally hammered!!

My 61 litre tank now costs £74 quid but I get 550 miles going small journeys

as long as you change the belts and tensioners and service it on time the diesels will go forever..

Stick some pics up for a quick oggle.

GT is a good car - I had a GTD 170 with the DSG gearbox as a hire car once, great car to drive.
