All I do is stick stuff on here and translate what it says for those who don't speak German. I would think maybe a German publication might have a bit more of a clue of what is going on. But what do I know?

Don't worry everyone's an expert on everything on line.....

Plus once you've curbed one even if you pay for the refurb the white worm will still come a-nocking so it's probably better just to save and pay for a new tbh...

If only that was the cause of white worm everything would be rosy.

Are you saying you can get white worm even without curbing?

Eh? This isn't a press release, it's a magazines view of what it will look like and how much power it will have.


Yet another magazine plucking numbers and pictures out of thin air.

"mindestens 220 hp" means "at least 220 hp" so it might be 225!!!!!!!!

Of course.
Badges and centre caps suffer whiteworm and they don't get kerbed.
Polished/lacquered wheels almost always get whiteworm, no matter how careful you are with them...assuming you actually use the car.

Reducing my Golf count by the week....
..but gaining motorcycles.

I had one wheel replaced under warranty due to white worm but no damage at all.
