Cheers, well happy with how it looks, would like a short private plate but ill see if one comes up.

Wheels are brand new and staying silver, looks much cleaner silver i think!

Loving the colour coding can't wait to get mine done. Have you needed to replace your clutch to go stage 2?

Loving this :)

Amazing what a bit of colour coding does to a car. I've just collected the full GTI skirts and valances to code to my Tornado GT TDi.

I'm from just over the water, Edinburgh. But am in Dunfermline most weekends (gf). There seems more and more central Scotland members. Will let you know if a meet gets organised.

Thanks for comments, didnt seem to have had email notifications!

Standard clutch is perfectly fine on stage 2. Even a stage 2+ K04 (350bhp) can run a standard clutch!

Yeh i see theres a good few Scottish members!

Heres slightly better pictures

I take is yours is a DSG then?

Edit: just seen your interior pics and you've got a manual. Not sure others will agree with the above statement! Maybe can run a standard clutch but not for long.

Think your GTI is probably the best looking one I've seen on here TBH, the recent pics are perfect.

Thanks a lot mate, i really do like how it looks too!  

Reason i say standard clutch is ok, is my mate has an ED30 running stage 2+ and has ran standard clutch with it for a long time. He has an upgraded clutch to fit, but hasnt done so as it hasnt needed it!!

As for the car, nothings been done in last month, after an RNS510 so keep an eye out.

crap dirty weather now too so ive bought a 4x4!

nice short wheelbase, plenty of clearance, decent A/T tyres...permanent 4WD? your not getting stuck in a hurry,.

[Gaz]

Na hopefully not! 

Rear wheel drive (with LSD- exciting!) until 4x4 engaged, has Low box too so all good for when the going gets rough/ tough 

[Scottymon]

Cool, is it viscous coupling jobby, or electronic like Haldex?  Bet it'll be great fun!

[Gaz]

Not a clue what kind of LSD they have, but the certainly aint electronic!!

Love this!! How do you get on with the springs on your mileage, does it feel tight or crashy at all?
