160000 Miles?!
I have found a golf i really like for sale, but one snag, its done 160000 miles! :/
my guess because its a petrol, normally they wont run much higher than 130000?
how durable are these engines? or should i just stay well away?
Thanks… (:

When my gti came off the road it was on 165000 and was still running as sweet as the day I got it, also had a 1.5 gx that was on 215000!! Which apart from a dodgy carb was still running lovely too. So I would say that as long as its been serviced and had cam belt changes I wouldn't be too worried about mileage :mrgreen:

I agree with blans.
As long as its been looked after it should be fine.

My 1.3 ran all the way up to 198,000 miles until the gearbox went. The engine would have carried on! 8)
