Finally got my new car and im smitten!
« on: September 18, 2010, 04:36:05 pm »
So yesterday I made the trip from London to liverpool to trade in the cupra.

Was a long drive and at first taking my time on the motorway cruising at 60mph got the mpg up to 39mpg :D Then halfway there I got bored and started to drive properly and increase my cruising speed and the mpg settled at around 32mpg.

In stock mode the car still felt pretty quick so was impressed. But yeah that was my last drive!

Heres a pic from the night before with my mtaes megane sport which is a very nice drive, power delivery is very linear but love the way it handles and steers.




So anyway moving on got to audi to pick up my new toy.

I wanted blue originally, but couldnt find one that was already in the country within my budget sadly. But the white is growing on me.

looks good in white.  how do you rate the performance as standard compared to the stage 2+ cupra?

Whens this in for remap and exhaust etc.  REVO have software available now, so theres no reason why your car shouldnt have it :grin: :wink:

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Hahah cheeky! Funnily enough my mum prefered the k1 and my old man the TT.

Will map it once my savings have recovered, am probably looking at november, then treat myself to the race milly for xmas!

Im really confused as to how the car compares to a stage 2 plus k04. I keep changing my mind, at first I was like this TTRS is so much slower, but now im not so sure anymore. The k1 would deffo beat it 30-130 though, but before that and after that im thinkin RS. Meeting up with wayne soon, our k1s were just as quick as each other so will know for sure once we play

The white actually looks very nice IMO, the wheel colour against it looks spot on.
