You are retarded :facepalm  
If the previous owner said he changed the oil however many times and documented, he obviously cared about the car. So to even bring up the argument of the car not being maintained is stupid.

I don’t see where you get to come and rag on this GTI, thing is in awesome shape, maybe not “like new” but definitely in awesome shape for an '88. Just because you don’t/haven’t owned anything nearly as mint, don’t hate.

Oh, and I let gas sit in my cars all winter. Absolutely no point in draining it for the winter. Same with oil, if it’s fairly new/fresh, what’s going to happen?

Quit hating you chode.
