Golf mk8 / Re: GTI Edition 50 first press release
« Last post by Exonian on Today at 14:52 »Just seen the price here in the UK as OTR Starting £47,995 and orders are open from 15th Jan!
Thats £175 less then the starting price of a Golf R Black Edition!
Is this officially announced now?
£175 less but worth a fair bit more 5 years down the line depending on spec (and legislation!) for cash buyers. I wonder how the PCP’s stack up though which probably accounts for a good proportion of registrations.
Interesting that there’s still no bucket seat availability which is the usual top desire of Ed40 hunters. It’s not like bucket seats aren’t available on the platform with both the RS3 and Leon getting the option. Albeit the Leon might only have the seats in the TCR edition or whatever it’s called (going from memory here as I thought I saw it announced earlier in the year).

Golf mk7 GTD/TDI / Anyone have a GTD for sale?
« Last post by Bustabloodklaaart on 15 December 2025, 21:50 »Hi Guys
I’ve not been on for a long time but having wrecked mine last week, I’m running around this week trying to obtain another.
If anyone has/knows one for sale I have pound notes so drop me a line.
I’m on South Coast.

Golf mk7 / Re: 7.5 performance dsg remap
« Last post by Pkempster on 15 December 2025, 21:04 »I had an engine ecu remap and the DSG box remap at the same time on my 2019 7.5 performance and wow, the difference is amazing. The gearbox remap makes the shifts in sport mode way quicker and more snappy and I don’t notice any issues with it finding gears in general driving.
The only issue is trying to get the power down in this colder weather with damp roads. It’s often better in normal than sport otherwise it’s spinning the wheels for grip. I also don’t get great mpg in mixed driving but cruising on motorway is alright.
