I got a discount where I went as I had to pop back a few times (10%), £399 is the price normally (although it says £450 in the listings), but if you ask I'm sure you'll sort a small discount for asking wherever you go. :happy2:

I saw your piece on it when you first had it fitted. I came across the same USA-UK time issues you had :surprised:

It is addictive isn't it though listening to those 7k+ upshifts and pops :evilgrin:

If I can come I will, but I'm on afternoons and would have to get cover.

I thought that the 25 slots were full anyway....plus some reserves too.

Not to mention the voyeurs and bourbon munchers :laugh:

Glad to see you are happy with the DSG software John.. Good in it?  :drool: But I wouldn't get to confident about taking 4/10th of your 1/4 mate. 1/10 will be about your lot I would say.. But that's not just what it is all about. The whole experience of all other features is spot on..  :happy2:
I reckon you have got a good 3-4/10ths to come of your time anyway John with a few more runs under your belt. From going out in the passenger seat it feels just as quick as mine..
