It really depends on how it is driven! A 106 GTI should return 35-40mpg without too much bother when driven easy.

hmm the problem is we are talking about a teenage girl who is ridiculously impatient and is to bloody lazy to claim her miles back.

Might be the best way to get her to claim! GTI's tend to be fairly easy on fuel compared to most when driven hard too. It's only a 1.6 after all.

Accident damage would be the big thing. A lot of those have seen the wrong side of a hedge in their time! Not sure about the GTI but it should have similar reliability as your look2. I've had a diesel 106 and it was bombproof.
Anyone know of 106 GTI issues?
