Nice choice Dave  :happy2: Do I get anything for guessing?  :jumpmove: :signLOL:
Has it got much spec do you know? I take it it's a N54 then? The auto box on the 135i is actually bloody quick from what I have read and seen. Alright it's no dual clutch, but I don't think it's that much slower tbh..
Check this one out for instance..  :surprised:

I'll pop in with mine and have a ganders next time i'm up in the North East Dave if that's ok?

Ace. I got the clutter a week early, think they make it seem worse so you upscore them on the post sale evaluation for their bonus.

Get it run in with a trip to Anglesey on the 2nd, you can witness all manner of stupidity. I think Wilko is going for the roof this time, after his reversing skills at Oulton. I'll be collecting more gravel!

 :signLOL: :signLOL: :signLOL:

Knowing Wilko, that doesn't surprise me at all.. Is that in the Golf or the Consortium bought, track slag, Bora?

Hi Ron, feel free to drop in. Your prize is a dyno run  :drinking:

It has everything I wanted such as graphite paint colour, xenons, pro satnav, front/rear parking sensors (for the missus of course   :ashamed:), alu trim, bluetooth, climate, higher spec stereo etc.... It has the black leather, tried to find dark red but gave up.

Sniff around some forums, You may get someone willing to swap interiors?

Ben, the Bora. We've had his golf on track though - it was mental, like trying to keep a dog in a bath tub!
Sideways yo!

Nice, nice car .... I looked at a a white DCT 135i but stayed sensible and went for a black LCI 330d coupe auto ...

I wanted the power ... but needed some economy .... and couldn't find a 335d at the right price. 

Annoyingly the 135i I was looking at got reduced by 3K days after I bought my 330d ... though white was a bit 'in yer face'

Nice one Dave :happy2:
So your plan to keep you golf lasted a whole 2 months then! I remember you syaing, you bought the exhaust as you were keeping it a while longer :stupid:
I wonder what bits you have that I havent got then :jumping: :jumping: looks like the refresh button on the for sale section is going to take to abuse :wink:
I'll have to take a gander on my way home from work to see what its like then Dave.
Does your model  come with indicators by any chance :laugh:

Very much looking forward to seeing the development of your car, especially with it having the different engine to mine and all. Might have to blag a passenger run at some point..  :wink: :smiley:
