My GTD has arrived

What's the pickup like Phil compared to your motor?

Quite smooth, but obviously the accelaration with the DSG i prefer as i find you can mash the throttle and the car can get the power down without wheel bounce or hop if your over zelous with the clutch/accelarator in the manual.

Personally think the GTD with DSG would be a great allrounder if im honest, thats quick, effecient, and easy to drive/live with.

At a recent RR day, i had a fellow Gti Pirelli thats a Manual gearbox , at the same state of tune/same 300bhp, tried following over the B roads and couldnt keep up without very bad traction.

Had the car 2 weeks, new tyre needed already 

Noticed a slow puncture this week, rear driver's side.  Took it to a guy I use locally, he took the wheel off and there's a nail on the inside of the tyre, right on the edge where the tread finishes onto the side wall so it can't be fixed. Grrr.
