Get a low mileage manual ED30 all day, IMO looks better than the MK6, can have 300bhp+ with just a map and panel filter.

And a new clutch while your at it  :P  budget one if you remap it and are an enthusiastic driver...something DSG  owners don't have to worry about at any stage  :signLOL:



Guess your saying Formula 1 is sh*t because it's full of Automatic gears?  :confused:

Im not sure you can really compare the two
TSR PERFORMANCE GTX30 520BHP
LITCHFIELD R35 GT-R 660BHP
MSL E63 AMG 720BHP
HCP BM3 M5 800BHP

DSG got on my nerves so much until I had it custom mapped at R-tech now its amazing so much more responsive and doesn't get undecided about which gear it thinks it should be in!

I had an A3 2.0 tdi dsg when I lived in London and it was a godsend, but now that I'm not crawling in traffic all the way to work and back and can enjoy driving the car it was manual all the way!

Love my dsg and doubt I'll ever go back to a manual now. In fact I've just swapped my caddy van for a 62 plate caddy dsg :)

I tend to stick it in cold water and take the shell off. Nothing like eating an egg and getting a nice whack of shell in your mouth

Say what?!
