Hi All,

new to all of this so please help me along the way if thats OK?

I work for a magazine called Performance Tuner and i have managed to get a feature agreed with the publisher to get a selection of the top MK5 GTi's together at Bruntingthorpe to see what different tuning packages are available.

The idea behind the feature is the everyone is different and the tuners out there offer different levels of tuning power.

We are looking to get around 10-12 cars that have been at some of the top tuners over the past 9 months.

At the moment we have got some of the tuners bring thier cars along but just thought i would see if anyone might be interested?

If you could contact me on kirk.ritchie@chpltd.com with the spec and who has carried out the work then that would be great.

Also, once the magazine is out on sale (28th May) if you contact me i will try and get a copy out to you.

Thanks

Kirk

This smells like 'let us rag your car, trash your tyres and brakes and we'll give you a free 3 quid magazine'

or i might just be a cynical old bstard.

My b/f went on a Mk 2 GTI 16v shootout day a few years ago at Brunters and nobody drove the cars except the owners.
