Centre speaker ordered 👍😊
I really appreciate your hard work on devising the upgrade and looking forward to the sound improvement.
I have missed having a decent sound system since my Golf MK7 GTI with the Dynaudio upgrade.

Have you fitted it yet? Keen to see what you think, I do like an OEM audio upgrade.

Consider Goodyear Eagle Supersports, I’ve got them on my Clubsport and they do very well. Had PS5s on my last car, also very good but rim protection lacking compared to the Eagles.

Today Daisy the cow was sent to market.

She’s been great, faultless, lovely to drive, a total pleasure to own.

But, as Marianne Faithful once said, “it’s all over now baby blue…” (she did it far better than Dylan)




Anyone care to guess what replaced her in the Exonian barn?

Something electric, maybe an ID3 or perhaps a Cupra Born? (assuming it’s still a VWAG car)… That backdrop looks very market like!

Yes. I coated everything, including centre caps. They were already balanced so not an issue for these, but some people report ceramic coating makes it more difficult for weights to stick. But others say not...

Did you do the inner rims with G Technic? I’m trying to establish whether doing this would risk the balance weights coming unstuck.

Thanks for this. I have had a few emails and it got built 1st week of July and on the 6th to say it was all clear to leave the factory. Had another email today to say:-

Just a quick update to let you know that your new Golf GTI has now left our factory and is on its way to the UK.

So hoping that means it’s on a ship not just at the dock

For me on my current car I had the Continental SC5’s fitted when new which I think overall gave more grip but wore quicker, where as the Michelin PS4s I have had just seem to be a better overall tyre for everyday use. Less road noise and seems a better ride.
