Golf mk8 / Re: Queenstown and DCC
« Last post by Exonian on 08 July 2025, 18:09 »
You can order a Clubsport with Queenies and no DCC however a regular GTI 265 has Queenstown and DCC as a package in the UK. Whether it’s down to the weight of the wheels or some other marketing reason I have no idea.
Dogman12 has a point though, it’s not impossible that a set could have been retrofitted to a GTI minus DCC.

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

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.

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!!

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!
« Last post by jdoubleu on 07 July 2025, 22:39 »
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!
