I'll be getting an R next or a mk7 something.
I mapped an S3 on Wednesday and I tend to test drive them afterwards, I have to say that I'm always blown away by just how fast they are.

Yes, BLOWN is the operative word.  :laugh:

Lifes too short........ if you like it and can afford it then go for it!  :smiley:

I know I would like one thats for sure but I've always been too bloody sensible and paid my cars completly off before starting the whole mad process of buying another one.

Don't do it Kenny
Gti is much better looking and just as quick if mapped  :smiley:
^^
He's right.

The Rs will bomb in value in a few years, the GTI won't.

They both will and the Gtd will rule

The GTD rules now and has done for about 6 months  :wink:. But the R has prestige and goes like stink with 4WD stop messing about and get it  :grin:

Tiguan quicker than the Golf

Past caring.

I've had lots of GTD/banter posts deleted by the mod (s).

That's why I didn't post for a while.

This should be a GTI forum giving stick to the diesel brigade, not the other way around.


Mod (s) - feel free to delete, you normally do.
