@ Poverty,

Catch Evo this month (if you haven't already...). They put the TT-RS around the Bedford track just under 3 seconds quicker than the Bentley Conti SS, which is 50hp short of having double the power of the RS. Hot :jumpmove:

Just shows its OEM performance and capabilities really. Excellent motor.

I like that. It looks more agresssive thatm the other tt range, cant help thinking the wheels need some spacers to finish it off.

I'm not jealous, Poverty  :wink:

Fabulous car and fabulous engine by all accounts. The TT-RS is most definitely not a hairdresser's car!

Is that rear spoiler standard on the TTRS?

Superb mate. Once my car is sorted I'll have to come out with you guys and have a look. I hope they put this engine into the RS3 (if it gets made) as it will be my perfect car in sport back guise!

Stunning mate :love:

Not see my passenger in the pics?  :P

meeting up with wayne today so will be able to see how it would compare to my old k1.

Went to the place were I always used to have fun with the k1 and had some plays against against a 380hp focus rs, and the TTRS is slightly quicker. Also had plays against a jabba stage 2 plus, in 3rd gear the k04 will edge its nose in front but after that the RS has a better top end. The mid range of a stage 2 plus k04 is phenomenal though, which the RS cant match, but the 2.5TFSI holds the power much better to the redline and that allows me to make up the difference!

Its gonna be a beast with a map!
