Ahh - now I see why you sold the Mk4. Very nice ride indeed!

Just under 3 years and we clocked 60k today. I got an interior steam clean yesterday and dan will do stage 2 on the exterior next week.

I drive this car more now than previously and love it like when we got it.

I'd say we will sell in about 18-24 months for something in the van category.

So it seems after some further discussion that it is close to the time for her to go. A really distressing time for me as I am very fond of this car. I will be preparing her for the market over the next few weeks.

I'll probably need to buy a MK2 (or similar functional small car) with working air-con for summer until the replacement VW arrives late Q1 next year.

Watch this space!

Don't get a MK2 if you want A/C that actually does something...
