NeilGTI,

Your red Mk 6 is much better looking than this monstrous modded car with the monstrous price tag.

+1 :afro:
MKV GTI | Reflex Silver | 5-dr | Anthracite 17" | Manual | Highline MFD | Cruise | Revision 'D' DV | Dirty Pipes |

The GTD is like a blow up doll. The GTI is like a proper woman. Sure the doll might last longer, and the woman might have higher running costs, but which would you rather have?

Abt body styling has always been crap - but their engine tuning is amongst the best. You want a drivable 330bhp engine which feels like it came from the factory that way and will last the life of the car - these are boys you want to talk to.

No offence, but what's behind your statement that these guys can do up to 330 bhp in the best way possible?

No worries. They work closely with Volkswagen/Audi to develop their engine conversions and have done since the days of the Beetle, Mk1 and Mk2. Both my 20 year old Mk2 and my Mk4 were tuned by Abt and both are still going strong with 90,000+ miles on each. I don't know about now, but they used to have factory approval on their conversions. They are certainly still sold as new cars through VW and Audi dealers in Germany. VW provide cars to Abt for development of their engines/suspension etc prior to the cars being launched.

They also prepare and race cars in DTM (which they won), German Formula 3, Nurburgring 24Hr and prep all the Polo Cup cars.

To be fair, 330bhp is what they are expecting from the Golf R engine. They offer a 300 hp upgrade for the Mk6 GTI. Downside is, they are expensive.
