After running all the numbers and doing some test drives on Corolla's (No Echo's for Sale in Sask right now) I have decided to drive my Alti until it is dead. Right now it is mechanically flawless which means low maintenance costs. The main issue with a TDI right now is everything is my price range has 200,000-250,000 and I do want to get stuck with a load of bills for repairs or maintenance.
I added a temp upper and lower grill block and got 35 mpg on a 165 km trip to Regina last night.
My water temp was up 10 or so degree's but hopefully with that and a belly pan and the lowered car (hoping to change springs and strums this summer) I can get 36-38.
The other issue is monetary, as we are planning to buy a house next spring and I should be debt free if I keep the Alti... can't complain with that
