very nice mate, wondered who would be the first to do this. OEM exhaust too? I may have taken the opportunity to but a aftermarket on

Perhaps there is a market then for us to sell on our GTI exhausts?  :smiley:

Tried fitting my road bike in the boot, and it fitted without removing any of the wheels.  :smiley:

My mountain bike has a smaller frame, so it should also fit.

Would fit in easier with the front wheel off, though.

Ordered a new cat back exaust system in the Golf 6 R look from DTH Turbo a couple of days back.

Will take a good 9 to 10 weeks till it is finished, but hopefully it will be worth it.  :rolleyes:

Pictures? Just try it.  Seats down my specialized tarmac elite goes in fine. Passenger seat forward helps a touch.

Had to reset my dipping rear view mirror after the car had mysteriously forgotten it. The drivers door window has also stopped doing a one press fall and rise, the other 3 windows still work fine. Something to add to the list for first service a week on Monday.
Whey ya bugger! It's finally arrived after an 8 month wait....

Gave it a well deserved clean. One thing I have noticed on the DPB is that the light scratches really show up when it's clean. Also noticing that the brake pedal seems a bit squeaky and under low speed get a slight noise from front left suspension all to be looked at during my first service.
