Considering getting a mk6 GTI

[Pazzer]

Good morning guys,

As above I’m considering getting one, I’ve got a 2007 Audi S3 at the moment but just wondering had anyone made the switch?

Just looking for something a bit more fun and lighter than the Audi.

Cheers,
Dan

Get the s3 mapped to make it more fun as the mk6 won't tick that box coming from an s3

Haha just had that done and still considering selling it. It’s just not that fun, and I’m hoping that the golf would handle better with it being lighter. I very nearly bought a 2010 GTI a few years ago, but hesitated, then someone else bought it when I was on the way home.

Also there’s quite a bit of turbo lag on the s3.

Can't see it being able to handle any better than your s3 although it will feel lighter and who mapped the s3

[Pazzer]

Ok, it was an APR map. I just thought that lighter cars generally were better handlers.

Think an s3 will be our next car
