DSG & deisle [sic] has got be good combination??

DSG helps on a sporty diesel, because the gearbox short-shifts, keeping the revs in that lovely torquey powerband.  :cool:

I tried a MKVI 140bhp TDi DSG few months back - makes it deceptively quick in "real world" terms... Just out of puff a bit early compared to a petrol.

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?

Trying to... can't... under... stand??? diesel... automatic...... sporty??!!  :wink: :grin:

Buy the GTD. It's got lots more kit which you'll enjoy in just a few days time and driving around a city you'll notice the dynaudio and extra torque more than the red stripes on the grille and the extra 40hp. You'll have to do something about the naff standard 17" wheels though...

I ordered A GTI a few days before the New Year. The price shocked me. Pearl black , Upgraded stereo ,Dynaudio speakers ,Xenon lights and just added folding wing mirrors Monza Shadows , forgot about them
Currently driving a Mitsubishi Outlander 4 X 4 which funny enough has the VW diesel engine ,its a good car and has everything you could ever imagine and more which was not much more than my GTI will cost. Before that it was an Audi A3 sport diesel. Now I want to go back to driving dynamics which I remember from my mark 2 GTI a very long time ago. Have been told April suppose I will need to wait and see.
