SteveP's Carbon Grey Mk6 GTD
« on: April 12, 2012, 11:56:59 am »
Time for another new daily  :grin:

This time back to what I know best a Mk5 and a bit Golf.

After a bit of a head and heart fight between an ED35 and the GTD, the sensible side of me won with the logic of the saving a good chunk on my £1k+ a month fuel from running a TFSI as a daily.

So here's some pics to get the thread started. If the sun ever comes out again I will get some better ones  :ashamed:











Spec wise it pretty well loaded and being a late 2011 car it got the standard heated leather interior and bluetooth upgrades on top of the following extras: -

DSG
RNS-510 Version H Sat Nav
Armrest MDI Kit
Sunroof
Lux pack inc Folding Mirrors
Winter Pack
Front and Rear Parking Sensors
Adaptive Xenon's with LED DRL's
18" Charleston Shadows

And the more choice of modifications has began, first up was the Rear View Camera



And then yesterday a trip to Revo for a bit of a power boost which has made a big difference to otherwise pretty dull driving experience  :driver:

A few more bits to come but as I always say, I am not going too mad with this one  :grin: :grin:

you should of carried on using the 430Hp caged beats as the work car.  Thats hardcore  :grin:

Looks just like the GTI as well.  Very nice.  GTD is the 170 CR TDI isnt it?  You mapping or just leaving it as is.  Loads of guys doing DPF delete stage 0/1 and 2 maps these days

I'm liking that pal, is that a goodbye to the little polo then? Just one thing though what's happened to the drivers seat bolster or is it just the way the pics been taken?  :happy2:

Nice ride. Is this to replace the Polo then?

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

Too many doors and the wrong type of engine. I much prefered the red GTI track beast, Cant believe it's gone for this.  :rolleye:
