if so how you find the gti?
-
Surely no one is going to own up to having a TT?
:D
-
One of my work colleagues has the sport version (240bhp standard) and a remap. It is quite a nicely sorted motor, but it can't keep up with my ED30 :rolleyes:....at road legal speeds obviously :wink:
-
i can imagine the ed30 being quick, especially yours
the tt i enjoyed was plant the right foot and traction will hold and round corners it was ace
-
i have a TT and theres nothing wrong with them :evil:
its fast, but i dont know, after a while it dosnt seem like anything special,
i would comment on that and my gti, but as most know, my gti is currently in bits, however 1/2 weeks, il have both, so il give a full low down!
-
I thought only hair dressers drove TTs... :shocked: :wink:
-
haha, all the hairdressers, plus me.. im the exception!
-
Let me guess - you're a "stylist" ;)
Dan (only jesting!! :grin: )
-
haha i like styling my hair if that counts? you lot are jokers, tts aint that bad, plus you get the right attention from girls ;) il get some pictures up of it later

tts aint that bad, plus you get the right attention from girls ;)
Yeah, they think you'll be a great friend to take shopping :grin:

Hi There ive had a revod tt - didnt have a great experience with the remap and had it taken off in the end as the car smelt like it was going to blow up.
It was fast and the 4wd kept things in check
The standard gti will feel a bit slower in comparison but in anything other than wet conditions the fluid handling of the golf wins every time. The golf interior isnt quite as special in my opinion but I still think its great althougth I have got leather buckets and a silver Centre console surround which lifts the interior a bit for not too much cost.
My Gti came with the switchable Revo remap which in contrast is superb very progressive and feels like it is oem - very similar to a standar ed30 with just a bit more. A remapped ED30 must be mental!!
With the remap on its very very quick - feels quicker than my remapped TT was. In terms of how the car performs with a remap, I can comfortably keep up with my pals 997s on the twisties and he cannot pass me when following - still leaves me for dead on the straights. Jag 4.2 xk8s get very surprised. The remap really turns the Gti into something very very special in my opinion - some of my previous cars include E46 M3, Rs6, F355 - to date its my favourite car after the F355 - thats how good I think it is.
Get one - get it remapped and you wont be dissapointed.
Hope this helps
Cheers
