Yeah I am surprised to be honest, there were certain things I loved about the car but for a daily driver it was just a bit too rough (our roads over here are terrible too). The clutch and transmission noises gave me the heebie-jeebies though -- dealer insisted it was normal, then recommended 3 new tires (at 20k) not because the tread was low but because they had deformed. If thats what it was like at 20k I don't want to know 60k or 100k, etc. Anyways I got a decent trade in value for it, only depreciated a few thousand since new. On the forums a lot of GTI guys are actually trading out.
