Title: 'Wake me when your VTEC kicks in'
Post by: DRC on 30 May 2011, 23:12

Civic Type R....last night.... :cry:

I think it's fair to say my DV has split, it doesn't feel the same as before, or maybe I didn't notice it?
Going to order a new one tomorrow, probably the likes of £50 out the back pocket :(

Should a DV really be splitting on a MK6? I was pretty sure the new version DVs that VW use had over some think problem.

Andy, believe it or not, my 3 month warranty only applies to 'myvolkswagen.co.uk' group.
So the closest garage is Leicester, which would be 4 hours all in travelling. It'd cost me more in fuel :(

Oh and that replica is nice!
Just a shame no Bi-Xenons otherwise it'd look the mutts nutts!
Last replica I saw was purchased by someone on here for like £18k I think, looked stunning though, all original VW parts :)

Haha Alan, it's ok :)
I used to own an mk6 Golf but traded it in for the Cupra. I couldn't leave this forum......or Asker's sarcastic comments :P
