    Another new car for me........

    Well, i've sold the RS4, wasnt really enjoying it TBH, was great to see it parked outside but it just wasnt that much fun to drive compared to the enjoyment i get now.....

    I now have myself a Mk5 Golf GTi, its had a few tweeks and i dare say that if the RS had the same then it would have been as enjoyable but the cost of it would have been so much higher.

    Anyways, its got some coilovers, turbo back exhaust with sports cat, remap, R32 brakes and the spec is also pretty nice too.... One pic below....

    Nice motor, I really like the Mk5 and the price you can get one for is even better. They go really well with a remap and sound awesome with a good exhaust. Nice buy

        Its also got DSG with the paddles on the wheel, also the optional GTi Bucket Recaro's (The fancy seats you see in the .:R32 but the proper GTi ones with GTi on the head of them)

        And yeh the zorst has a nice burble to it but it doesnt drone thru the car.

          Well that's just put the icing on the cake with them seat. Do you know about the launch control on the DSG box. It works. Done it in my uncles Mk5 GTI.

                Yeh know about the DSG launch but havent tried it yet, traction isnt brilliant with it only being FWD and roughly 250bhp but will give it a go sooner or later im sure.
                The seats are really nice too, so snug to sit in and hold me in well for more spirited driving lol

                Fuel is better yeh, doing around 28 on fun town driving but cruise control on the motorway its capable of 40+
