mother has a C4S convertible  -  as it happens, it's so not me  -  I'm 6ft tall and find getting in and out of it, and sitting so close to the ground, is not good for me  -  I'll be perfectly happy with the Gti.

I dont think I'll ever grow up to be honest. Heck I cant even behave myself on a message board  :laugh:

I think thats why we have kids (no I dont have any yet) there's the excuse to keep buying toys and gasgets etc - It's for the kids honest dear.  :grin:

lol bet you do.... at least once.

when I floored it though the car just made a thudding nice, I assume that was wheel spin?

Wont be doing that again.... tyres are not cheap.

Any way still smoked them lol

More like wheel hop rather than wheelspin ?
With the grip of the tyres the engine and box move rather than the tyres spinning, causing the wheels to bounce (me thinks) had it a few times on mine sounds like the front end is falling off,
Didn't have that problem with the softer winter tyres, they just dug in and took off. :shocked:
