I'm with Dec MK2..........

Not being Nosey BUT HOW THE HELL DO YOU AFFROD A BRAND NEW GTI!!!! at your age!!!???????????? :huh:

im 32 and can't afford one!!!!..... 'Yet'

After you paid your insurance and filled the car up each week I guess you have NO money left? :wink:

I'm doing something wrong!!

No offence but I don't think it is anyones business how someone funds, affords or pays for whatever. Gary is still at college, but is gonna be working offshore in the near future.

Sorry mate was only wondering, didnt mean to piss you off.

Hi Gary - I've got Revo Stage1 (and lots of hardware mods which contribute to performance when remapped). The Revo guys are excellent and well established.

Go for the standard Revo Stage1 switch box to start off with and see how you like it. You can pay an extra £50 when you want a Stage2. It doesn't make great sense to have a Stage2 without having the other mods. But beware coz modding is a very slippery slope and not cheap yet for Mk5's.

I've done 44,000 miles including limitless German autobahns and other parts of Europe and am satisfied with Stage1.

If his Fiesta is anything to use as a benchmark for his Golf, the suspension upgrade, exhaust and filter are probably already on order  :grin:
