      @@larrynunnery7914 😂 I actually like the postion he had in this video. That European cars are ok cars if they are taken care because from my experience with seeing friends and family maintaining their VWs, if they are maintained religiously they easily last 200k. But I don't expect 300-400k that can be reached easily by Toyotas and Hondas. There are certainly better cars for long life but I like the fun factor of European cars.

      My first manual car is a VW GTI I just bought brand new. I've had it for a few weeks now and really enjoy it. Best time to practice is when the clutch is new too lol. Can't think of a more proper way to break-in the clutch.

    I absolutely love my MINI's! Have two R53'S one bone stock, other... Became hooked after test driving my first one was surprised how much it felt like a go-kart. Requires more maintenance than a Toyota for sure, but both running strong with over 150k miles each. If you get a R56 change the timing chain tensioner immediately. The original one fail around 110k and motor go bye bye.
