Nice looking car  :cool:

What is this DSG of which you speak - is it clockwork, or witchcraft?

I'd rather drive a Tractor than a DSG.  :laugh:

Kev, you can have both - it's called a GTD DSG.  :lipsrsealed:

Nice Car!
DSG V Manual  - I've always had manuals so i thought i'd have a change and try thr DSG hopefully i will get on with it. If not i'll trade it in and swap for a manual.

Have fun. :smiley:

DSG Rules...it is as simple as that... :cool:
In 2010 you don't poke a stick around in a hole anymore (if it is about cars).......all called progress  :lipsrsealed:
If you want to engage...use the flippers......closer than that towards a Racing car you simply can't get... :wink:.

'Flippers, poke, hole'. Whatever next! :embarassed:
You make me blush! Naughty boy! :laugh:
Some of us like using both legs in our manipulation of speed! :laugh: :laugh:
Also, depends whether you like using knobs or flippers! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Each to their own. :wink:

Of course it's well established knowledge that the GTD is faster than the GTI - but it is still a bit tractory isn't it? I'm told that if you look behind the rear number plate there's a power take-off for ploughing implements.  :grin:

Steve:

On a very long journey the GTD will most probably arrive at its destination earlier than the GTi because of its better fuel consumption.
Therefore, it is the faster car!
I've just choked!

Regarding DSG: I think it is brilliant, but not for me. It is a matter of choice.

Your car looks fabulous!

Must come and listen to your Dynaudio setup once I have my car.
