Why the " :indifferent: ", Mat? - What he does to his cars is always interesting.

im with Mat tbh.  you reof al these plans of X, Y and Z.  and how good its going to be.  but you never get to the Z part.  happened when he bought his S3 back and with his ed30. sold both before it was finished.

that said, fair play to him.  id be going nuts like that if i could afford it

indifference here too.  He never finishes them, or developes to their fullest potential.

I think hes the luckiest bloke alive that car afford to waste thousands of pounds on cars, and then race cars for a decent wedge.

If i was him, i would be doing the same tbh.

Good luck to him, he's in a very fortunate and finantial position.

Understanding how modifications on a car alters the car is Jonny's stock and trade. He NEEDS to do it for his racing job and so the money spent on modifying cars (in my opinion) is money well spent. Jonny spoke of getting a 997 Turbo PDK, so that would by my guess for his next car. If this had the new S-Tronic in it I would have bought it today :laugh:

Rumours have it that at certain speeds due to the s-tronic gearing it might be slower to certain performance "milestones". Overall it will be quicker and get much better mpg on the motorway, granted though the TTRS gets the same mpg as a stage 1 2.0TFSI anyhow.

Sad to see it up for sale, but he has his reasons.

Looks like I will be the first aftermarket TTRS owner in the UK though  :jumpmove:

Now if only the company would hurry up and sell me their prototype!  :driver:
