Mk7.5 GTI with just under 5000 miles only
My local VW dealer in Bath has a 6-month old MK7.5 GTI direct from VWUK for sale. Today I had a look around it though it has not been prepared for sale as yet. The vehicle has complete 4952 miles but both front tyres are completely & evenly worn down to the tread wear indicators! Well I never experienced wear like this on my MK7 GTI that I had for 4 years and now I am suspicious of what this car has been doing and where it has been.
The tyres are Bridgestone Potenza's S001 so that might explain it but surely this tyre wear has to be abnormal! The rears are fine and the car itself is pristine. It just seems unreasonable to see wear like this given its low mileage, unmarked condition inside & out and the fact that rear tyres are as you might expect for its mileage.
I actually drove this car the other day on what are clearly illegal tyres - amazing!
