Thanks buddy, i find it great.. drove the GTD but mk7 and wasn't a fan... get it swapped dude!!!  30mpg is average on mine  can squeeze 40 on motorway but at a stretch!! but the gtd i hear arent as good as vw say mpg wise...  would be looking at just a software update map if anything!

Your's shines every bit as good!   Brought a nostalgic lump to my throat, such a lovely car the mk6 GTI, but..........


.........you know you want a mk7 R............. :evil:  :grin:

haha yeah i know! probs inbox you for info on them again in near future!! :grin:  just saving those £££ atm!!  :laugh:

Keep saving.....   I'll await the R PM.  :laugh:

wish i had spare 10k lying around...guess ill play the lotto lol...only thing that puts me of with mk7 r is THERES TOO MANY IN MY AREA...theres 2 literally round the corner from me both white..

Lol, did't have a spare £10k 'lying' around, took a concerted effort to save the money over a 2 year period - was worth it though. 

Not too bad round here, seems to be 5 R's in my town which I can live with.  Anyway people think it's just a normal golf anyway so that makes a mockery of 'exclusivity'   :grin:

Nice pics Chris. Was the old emblem difficult to get off? And damage to the car or emblem in the process. I have a white GTI and wondering if a black emblem would look any good..... Might look a bit out of place but def suits your black.

 hi buddy - which one front or back?  back was easy. screw driver in the bottom and pops off. cracked the badge but hell am not going to use it again so doesnt matter. tried my best to not crack it. could probably use my original again its not damaged that much! however would do it on warm day or get the hair dryer on it to loosen the plastic!  the front was a pain. some peoples just twist off, some you need to take the whole grill front off. either isnt too bad tbh. if you know what your doing not a long job,...

I found the best way to get the back one ff was wit a pair of credit/debit cards, they didn't even mark the car or the badge.

yeah i tried this at first but it ended up taking the plastic coating off the card and could see it "nacking" it haha!
