No still won't have any of it on the iphone, no probs on the ipad tho 
Got some footage will upload it on youtube and stick the link on here, had the external mic on but too much wind noise really, would of been better in the boot, will try that next time

Thanks for the comments  thought i'd just put a few more pics up ..

Time for some new front rotors as the others were 2nd hand when i got em, and ive done a few trackdays on them aswell now,




Few pics of the BCS 










New Paddles


one fitted to compare stock paddle on left


both fitted






Little update on suspension,
Still not 100% happy with B16 ride control system, still making noises and sloppy handling... think it is more of a gimmick rather than for all out handling, so Bilstein have sent me a new B16 kit... not the IRC version, and after 3 months of waiting for them, these have had an upgrade to a triple bearing system and i have noticed that the springs are quite heavily protected with rubber sleeves, getting these swapped over next week foc  so hopefully this should quite things down and sort the handling out.. loved the B16 kit on the MK6 and i should of opted for this in the beginning instead of the Gucci version, Hopefully Autotechnica can fit me in this week and get em screwed on 
Will update next week

Lovely looking car! Defo the nicest colour in white  They just don't look the same to me in the other colours?

Neil, this is a thing of beauty! I own a mk6 GTI  and currently in the market for one of these used (hopefully next few month) and looking for one in white with the idea of putting the black alloys,roof and mirrors like yours. Either white one or red    

The prices of the Rs are absolutely ridiculous for what is basically a golf. You think its worth it upgrading from the mk6 to R? any extras worth looking for on a used one?
