Have you gone off your Rocco, Andy? Yours is a very fine example. Personally I'm still not keen on the Rocco from certain angles but that's only my particular taste.

it looks nice but not for me thanks i love my ed30 too much pure and simple  :laugh: and by the time u have spent all that money changing to the mk6 you could have done so much to your car and it would destroy that all day long  :laugh: infact u could 4 mo a mk5 if you had the balls  :laugh:

Would be cheaper to turbo an R32, more power and already 4motion  :evilgrin:

Nail on head :congrats:

Thing is though guys regardless of cost this is the car that we have all been praying VW would make.
 I never thought for one minute that it was going to be 26 - 27 grand.   :party:
Once a few people have gone stage 2 + and they are flying up the strip. Then i guess we will all be selling kidneys.  :rolleye:

....If you or I ordered the new Golf R we'd deff be including Recaro's methinks. I've forgotten if your Mk5 is DSG or not, but you doubtless get my drift: The optional extras are guaranteed to add a few grand. And then there's one or two or three or four, mods!

Plus it's always wise to wait for a car to be out for about a year. So we are looking at 2011 perhaps. By which time I'll probably have hit 100k miles :laugh:

maybe we ought to start a new post for a group-buy for kidneys to gauge supply and demand of kidneys then.  :laugh: NHS will be having a field day 

And then there are different classes of them as well. Those who have been riding ED30, Mk V Standard, Mk V Mods, etc. each class at a different price structure. :evilgrin:

It's Allan Fishburn's new project car at The Golf Centre in Darlington.  Audi 4wd system is in, boot just needs tidying up because the spare wheel well had to be removed.  I'll post more details once it's completely finished.

MMM will be interested to see this. Been thinking maybe that I would be better off making the cupra 4wd with a BT application instead of being a evo and having to insure the evo and the cupra.

However Ive been looking into getting a evo 4wd system in the car, instead of haldex, not sure yet whether it can be done, getting in contact with some of the major evo players.
