I'll have to leave it for a while Lee. My bank account took a bit of a hit recently. But as soon as I'm ready, you'll be the first to know.  :wink:

A Quaife LSD costs in excess of £1000 retrofit, so it's comparable in costs?

I would rather they just offered the GTI as the one car with the LSD...

:grin: Someone at VW has been doing their market research with the LSD costs.

Is there a bonus for selling Performance pack? You can give me a cut :wink:

If I was buying I would pay the extra.
The diff and brakes would make such a difference.
I've drive alfas back to back with and without the Q2 diff and its like chalk and cheese. The one with the diff just grips like poop on a blanket especially on a damp road.
How good vw namby pamby half house diff is compared to a real mechanical diff is too be seen.
