How's your car 6 months on? I've done 8k and it still brings a smile to my face. I've not mapped it but the exhaust, LED interiors and dial sweep are enough. I had a stone chip on the screen so that has been replaced. I've a stone chip on the bumper that seems to be growing so I've got to get that done. I drove a XF Jag, what a rubbish car in comparison - like driving around in a large jelly! The GTD is THE car with 55+ mph on a run and 45+ mph when I'm hacking it around town. So much pull, even at high speeds
WOW!
8K already, I shud be driving mine more by the sounds, glad to hear its been a enjoyable 6mnths bar the windscreen
Yes I wud have to agree with you my experience in the last 6mnths has been fantastic too, I love the pull of the thing it brings a smile to my face every time, my previous cars have been a 1.4 pug and 2 1.5 swifts with only 102hp so the GTD is a totally different animal, I've always wanted a golf ever since I started driving and tbh when I cud finally afford a golf my first love was the R32 but my mrs made me see sense what with the fuel constantly on the rise the GTD ticked all the boxes....the grunt the pull of thing is just great and the return on fuel ain't half bad either, the only bad thing that's happened was a mishap at a McD's drive thro, all I went in for was a latte and I over compensated on the turning and clipped the curb
even tho I've been thro it plenty of times without any probs...I was even more annoyed with myself as when ever(on the rare occasion) that the mrs drove it I banged onto her about being careful!!! No more drive thro's for me well in my car any how...
Anyways that wheel has now been refurbed so it's good as new, I brought KennyGTI's Xenons from him when he traded in for a R so the front of the car is how it shud of been from factory, I always used to kick myself every time I saw a fellow GTD/GTI ect with them but no more.....
I just got round to changing the boot light to a white led and I have the interior ones on order which will be here next week, the led in the boot has given me so much more light its brighter and crisper I just hope the interior ones are just as good...my next mod will probably be a map but not just yet as I'm still more than happy with 168hp and 258ft.lbs it gives out...
