I am sure models with a good service history should alleviate any concerns.

Stick your budget up preferences and you may coax owners out of the woodwork

Golf mk8 / Re: Queenstown and DCC

Looking for a used mk8.5 GTI for the misses. Is it safe to assume cars optioned with Queenstown alloys have DCC aswell? It seems on the configurator you are forced to select DCC with the Queenstown alloys. Is that a new change or always been that way? I have searched the forum but not getting any hits, I'm probably being stupid! I called up a VW dealership earlier and asked someone in sales, it almost blew their mind  :huh:

Any info on the subject would be appreciated!

it's better to check the equipment through VIN number. Someone could've bought wheels separately.

Thanks for the reply - had leased a DSG version and liked obvs  but just old man nervous about ownership and potential repair bills on an older version

Hey.  Yes, selecting Queenstown wheels has always required DCC as a mandatory option.  I also believe if you select another style of 19" wheel, it requires the sports suspension for 19" wheels option.  Not sure why there are different requirements for different styles of 19" wheel, but that is what VW chose to do!!

Golf mk8 / Re: Does anyone have a Milltek exhaust on their Mk8?
« Last post by I Am Bosco on 07 July 2025, 22:47 »
I love how the 40’s guys are banding together haha!

Well I think I’m going with the Milltek Race exhaust so I’ll report back once it’s done (mid June I’m booked in), I’m getting a remap too because why the hell not!

Hi

Have you had the Milltek race fitted at the moment? If so tell us whats it like?

1. Sound and does it drone
2. Exhaust pops and bangs   
3. Is it hard to live with

Thanks

Golf mk7 / Re: Quick Xenon question!

I'd say they look OE to me. They also look like they have headlight washers that would come with factory xenon and I doubt anyone would retrofit those. Would be a nightmare!

Welcome along mate, there are a few in this section but not sure they are manuals. Is DSG really not an option for you?
