Cheers Ed, I see you are selling up also. I'm looking to save a large chunk of the money from the sale for a house/flat next year so I'll be going for something cheap cheap. I notice you can pick up a tdi mk4 golf in good condition for around £2k. I have another car (Lexus IS200) that I'm hoping to trade in and hopefully pick up a nice example Mk4.  :happy2:

I'm back!! After 6 months running an e46 BMW 320td Compact I've come to my senses, sold up and got back into a mk5!  :jumpmove:

Went all the way to Aberystwyth (the back of nowhere from Edinburgh) and bagged myself a '56' plate 170 GT TDi. I don't intend on modding it as much as my previous Golf, famous last words, but I'll keep you all updated anyways.  :wink:

Spec:

2006 '56' GT TDi 170
5 doors
Tornado Red
Grey interior
Armrest with storage
RCD300
17" Classix
Soft Close Boot Badge
23H9 Recall already performed
Tiny amount of bubble on one front arch, full service history though so I'm hopeful VW will do a repair under warranty
Red front Grille
Silver Headlights

Pleasy please?  :love: It looks pretty tidy now. Quick question (then I promise I'll start a new thread for my 170) was there much work involved fitting the 140 milltek to the 170. I'm most interested in the downpipe as the 170 downpipe is a mega price!  :surprised:

Haha. Cheers mate. The system is exactly the same for the 140 and 170's. The only difference being the downpipes. I resold the downpipe then got the Darkside Developments DPF delete. I haven't seen the Milltek version but Alex at AKS who does all my work said it was better made than the Milltek version. It is also cheaper even if you can get discount from Milltek.

That was partly the reason I went for it. It is a lovely piece of kit. A little too nice to be hidden underneath. Fitting it though, you will need a map to suit so its not trying to regen without the DPF being there.

Just because....
