New tyres fitted all round, 225 40 18 Goodyear eagle f1 assymetric 3 for £83 a corner fitted!!

They even did a free wheel alignment check and offered a discount on getting it realigned . Should be done this weekend after new springs go in.

Leave your feedback later when you've driven enough with them. :smiley:

So far they are quiter and smoother than the Falken and Hankook tyres I had before. Seems more smoother too. Will do a proper review later :D

Good.price! Where.from?

Good.price! Where.from?

So i booked my car online with F1 autocentre for the GoodYear Eagle F1 Assy2's, Hour later I get a call from the centre saying they only have 2 in stock so they will put 2 assy3's on the back, I asked if they can do all 4 of them assy3's and she said yes and at the same price i paid for assy2's!

awesome service from them and they are based nationwide

Ordered a pair of Goodyear F1 Asymmetric 3's for the front...  Looking forward to getting them on and getting rid of the crappy cheap ones I have on there at the moment

Complete rear-wiper from facelift model (aero wiper) + Golf VII heated washer nozzles with spray pattern instead of jets + revision G diverter valve.
The car sure feels different with the new DV!
Me happy!

Didn't actually install this today but wasn't long ago.

Unibrace XB. Was a bit sceptical when I bought it but I think it really makes a noticeable difference. Ties the car down nicely

Oh and love it with the seats removed

Quite a lot actually. Fully service, replaced the drive belt and engine mount stretch bolts. Checked the DV. Fitted my pressed plates and gave the car a full clean and wax. Now fitting my dash cam but called off because of the rain DOH!

Fitted new rear pads. Took forever to wind the piston back on the off side caliper, could not have got anywhere without the Laser rewind tool (thanks to the forum for recommending this!). Used to do jobs like this in a wink, at 42 and now a office jockey, serious back and leg muscle ache! - don't get old. Saved myself some cash so worth the pain!
