Another reason why you should have bought the car from glen

If I had more money at the time and rid of my old car I would have 

You could of sold your car to same person that ended up with it easy enough 

Hindsight is a wonderful thing. Wish I was as blessed as you with it

still a gorgeous car though

Looks ace mate, especially the front badge in black. Tornado red is without question or argument the best colour of MK6 GTi

Thanks mate. Going to order a black badge with red sides and inner section, reckon it might look good, might look sh*t too but at £8.99 can't complain.
Yeah tornado red is definately the best colour although a clean black can look amazing but I'm glad to not be trying to keep a black car clean anymore

I wouldn't...
I have one at home somewhere. I bought one, it looked terrible (the red is the wrong colour completely) so it's in a box somewhere.

Buy a couple of beers instead

After my new year I'm avoiding beer for a good while but I'm sure I'll find something else to waste it on

Put it towards a set of summer tyres!
Or an RNS510.

Hopefully going to order some tyres tomorrow just stuck on which ones. Was happy with eagle f1's on my old car but might try something new. Have heard good things about uniroyal rain sports and going by our lack of summer they could be a good shout.

I'd love an rns510 but would be better off getting Bluetooth sorted first. On a side note was it the Fiscon Kufatec basic or plus that you had before? Not sure on the main differences and whether it's worth an extra £50 for the plus.

I had Goodyear Eagle F1s on the VWR 19" wheels that were on the GTI. Same on the same wheels on the Mk5, and the same on the 19" BBS CHs that were on the Mk5 before that...
So I can recommend them.

I think you need the Basic Plus to get it working on the DIS and functioning from the steering wheel etc.
It was definitely the Fiscon Basic Plus I had fitted.

Managed to get out for a good run in the car last week for the first time. Was surprised at how well it handled and how the tyres coped.
Anyway I replaced those with some uniroyal rainsport 3's a few days later so have some fresh rubber at last.

Here's some pics below. Went up to Aberfoyle and done the Dukes pass and came back through Callander. Was lucky and timed it well so never had much traffic which was a bonus.
