^^^^
The OEM tint colours are quite subtle, Rach. But I think the blue is more attractive and relates better to blue skies - Does anyone remember seeing blue skies!?

can i get room to talk here people  :P
Theres no plans for it as such, just to clean her up and enjoy it, ive been looking at getting cruise control as i can imagine id use it a lot on the motorways.
Maybe a remap in the future too as id didnt feel very fast at all, i dont know whether there is anything wrong but i will be taking it to awesome gti to get it properly checked over and see what they say about the car  :stupid:
Yes it is louis, not some other lady you can try to chat up sorry haha

Yes yes legal! Dont have limo though (just my opinion)  :happy2:

And a badass exhaust and away you go. Oh and a cheeky remap eventually :)


P.s. I don't think mine are blue or green Tbh!

Rachael yours are blue based on the pic in your thread :happy2:

Yes, get it on a Dyno and also have them do a Diagnostic check. Sure all is fine though. When you say it does not feel very fast, in what way?

Well on my glanza its very obvious when the turbo kicks in as power is instant even at 10psi of boost, but this feels like the turbo is putting out 2psi, for a 2 litre i wasn't very impressed as my 1.3 felt faster and thats at only 140 bhp  :confused:
But this is my first german car so im guessing the power delivery is completely different?

Just want to make sure its normal then i can go from there and improve   :driver:
