Got my car back last night after being back with the dealer again to fit a towbar (removable - invisible with new diffuser)..
I had a scirocco loaner, it made me appreciate my GTD even more.. The scirocco is nimble - but it was the 1.4 tsi, the turbo on it supplies the power very randomly - 1st and 2nd gear are very on and off making it pretty unpleasant to drive..

After a wash last night (it was covered in dust from the workshop it'd been sitting in for 2 days), I took my GTD for a spin - it really seems to have opened up a bit more.. 600 miles on the clock and it's definitely got more bite. I've to drive down to Dublin later tonight, am really looking forward to it :)
