Rovertech 2.0

My Coupe is now coming up to 8 years ownership. The first car I ever bought and still looks good 8 years on and no rust. Have to say its now off the road in storage.

No option for less than a year! Err 11 days for the Vitesse, but I'll vote 2 years for the 214

Turbo just over 4 years, the Monty just over a year.

Had my coupe for just over a year now and its the longest ive ever owned a car

9 months

just over a year and a half, which is almost as long as i had my mini for, but i prefere the turbo

two years meeee

about 18ish months, so i put 2 years

11 Months so I put a year.

3 months.

I have owned my Coupe turbo for 7 years in January.
Its on its 3rd engine but still looks as good as the day I bought it.
Unfortunately due to building it bigger and better it has been of the road for 16 months now but due to grace the tarmac very soon...

Carl

Coupe ownership for about 3 years now although..... this one is about 2 years and the one before was one

Chris

about 2 months or so now

Crikey, I bought it 9 months ago.

4 year in total as I'd still have the nasp now if I had'nt driven a mate's turbo and been peer pressured into buying one....that I completely love.

had my turbo coupe for 8 years, and currently it,s got a genuine 8,500km on the clock but this in fact isn,t a good thing our planned it's down to curcumstance.

Bought in Feb this year. Was quite depressing to add up my recipts for the Ti to find excluding cost of car i have spent over £4300 already on it. It doesnt really feel like i have done much as well to justify it.

Ah well its all fun.

I suppose I bought mine just after I joined RT, which makes it about 7 months ish.

In that time Ive put about 2 - 2.5 K on it taking the mileage to a heady 45000

I like the car and is one of the most fun cars I have bought.

It has a couple of niggles to be sorted out - demister, central locking motor, ciggy lighter but other than that its OK.

I often wish I'd bought a turbo, but couldnt afford a low miler.

Im planning to recify that early next year when my share save in work finishes as I'll be on the look out for a 220 Gsi or Gti turbo as my spare car/ project

2 years for mine, (about 15k miles)

And in that time its only failed to start once because of a dodgy dizzy cap. But i wouldn't like to think what ive spent fixing all the other bits!

Andrew

bought my vitesse in march

now have replased:
Head
valve springs
wheels
exhaust
dampers
springs
since this morning i think a presure bearing in the gearbox is gone so more mony to spend on the wrong things

Im getting a box delivered next week , if you need any help doing yours give me a shout , are you still needing the gbe and boost gauge

think 3 or four years for my cabby.

4 years, 2 months 3 weeks and a day for me. 43,000miles in that time with very little incident. Gearbox, exhaust, tyres and roof (which was poor when I got the car) is, IIRC, all I've had to buy. Other than service items.

Was just thinking this morning that I don't even think a BULB has blown in the time I've had it!

I've had mine for 15months.

7 years & 20 days

3.5 yrs

got it with 71,000 miles on the clock, replacement engine at 126,000 now done about 130,000 odd

Had a 218 sd turbo for 2 years, but replaced it with a Vitesse Sport about 2 months ago.

just under 9 months

hi had my coupe for about 8 years been off the road for 4
should get it finished this year

How long .... er ... all of the above ....
