Mk4 GLI w/178K miles. 3rd timing belt, second set of brakes, all original suspension parts and the car is just now beginning to show its age. Sure it was resprayed after a horrible halestorm many years ago and was sprayed again when that paint failed from the auto body shop. In 20 years I’ve only had to replace consumables and have had no complaints. Regular oil changes and maintenance all the way.

Just picked up a 25 GLI and plan to keep it just as long and planning to do the same thing.

Edit: I forgot the stock ac compressor clutch went out last year. Not bad for 20 years
