Ahh so your abit of a dab hand at baking then mr robin? Looks like you had a good night lads! I want to try and make one of these meets! Im always busy on thursdays tho! Hopefully when the evenings get lighter i can pop down!
....A friend called Jackie made the cake specially. And another called Sharon suggested I arranged the cars as if crashed. The Bourbons and cars were my idea. We'd have still eaten that cake even if none of the birthday boys turned up.
Chris popped by just for a drink last night and so you don't always have to have dinner with us. Personally I can't stand watching people eat if I'm not eating as well.

They've always been quick. Just severely under-estimated. Sound as though I would've struggled to keep up heading back to junc. 3. Perhaps a drag race next time it snows...
Kind of glad I couldn't make it in the end - car is a sorry state. Wife has text to tell me its been keyed again - in a our, 'secure' underground residents car park. Gutted. Going to have to claim now as apparently these ones arent going to polish out. :sad1:

Keyed in a secure residents car park... what is the world coming to honestly :sad1:

That's seriously bad news! :fighting: Makes my piss boil! Outrageous!

that's sh*t to hear mate,hope you find the barstewards

Its safe to say that I now love driving the DSG in fully manual now the guys have shown me it cant be destroyed and will down gear itself at junctions :grin:
-

....Don't get lazy about letting it down gear itself though. Just 'Think Manual' and shift accordingly and don't over rev it if only because there's less power up there. I usually shift before 5,500 but I am a K03 car. Just go out and play - Be bold and experiment and you'll find your own favourite combinations and then it becomes fluid and natural and you'll never want another conventional manual box again. D is perfect for gentle cruising around town or traffic jam crawls. Whether just tootling or hooning, DSG rocks! :notworthy:
-
Cheers Robin. Some really useful stuff there! Ive noticed what you mean about no power, so optimum shift is a must, but its so useful coming down to roundabouts and not having to worry as such
-
i had a DSG box once and then went back to a manual gear box and started changing gear without clutch :signLOL:
-
I often do that when I move my polo GTI when Im at the workshop.
Always putting it into reverse with my foot on the brake only :signLOL:

^^^^
@ Alex:
Yes, it's very reassuring to know that the DSG box of tricks is looking after itself. I sometimes find that S-mode can be quite fun when negotiating big busy roundabouts with many junctions like in swinging Basingstoke (Ooops! never ever been there!) and Milton Keynes. There's a knack of popping from S through D to M gently but quick enough not to confuse the DSG brain.
You'll be wanting shift extensions soon! :evilgrin:
-
Indeed. S is interesting. Does make it rev a little hard to the point when its not going any faster ive found though!
I already want shift extensions - Steve's carbon ones were nice. Have you got them in yours?

^^ pic whoring robin? Surely not!

Good review that Robin :)
Ill save up some pennies and get a set me thinks!

a boost gauge i think is on the cards for me next,i do like that one.
also off topic, can you not get GTI as the last 3 letters of a reg
i have done a search, as i wanted my initials **-57-GTI
But i cant find a single reg with GTI on it :confused:
-
I isnt a valid numberplate letter.
It is however valid on NI plates, but not UK plates - therefore you wont find a UK plate with an I in it!
-
is that because it looks like a 1 ?
-
Correct
The main reason behind why it went D E F G H J - ie no I reg
Plus I think at the time they had considered reserving it for other use like Q
-

....Very useful indeed - I'm surprised VW didn't include one oem but judging by the one in the Mk5 GT I'm glad they didn't! It has no numerical values :stupid:
It's main use is monitoring if any problems. For example, a boost leak, or slow response, or flutter because of a failing coilpack, etc.
If you get one in a steering wheel cowling be aware that it squeaks! Doesn't bother me overmuch but I'm strange about such things.

....No, JKM fitted it for me. There are girls on this forum who are more capable than I am on doing such things.
I love your new forum signature - Extremely GTI traditional :notworthy:
-
It's one of those things i like to keep my eye on :happy2:
Cheers for the info mate,will call JKM Monday about one.

The J&H garden looks pretty big so it'll be good, especially if we do go on double summer time.
What about the 'do not enter the garden' sign, though?

Is this your car RR

was just browsing the JKM site and came across this :happy2:
EDIT,
never mind i just read at the top it was a mk5 Golf GTI Meet arrange by you lol
all though i have just read all the performance charts and now i really wanna buy a stage 2 upgrade
and i would love to rolling road mine,just to make sure its running ok and see how many horsey's I've lost from
the bonnet

It is however valid on NI plates, but not UK plates - therefore you wont find a UK plate with an I in it!
With the new 10 reg and onward plates, you could buy a Kent registered number that reads GT 1X XXX - but you'd have to break the law with the spacing to create GTI and you'd need a April '10 or newer car to benefit from it. But it is possible now.
Robin - To be honest, I wasn't as upset about to vandalism as I thought I might be. There's an on-going problem with some local scum and I'm working with the Police to deal with it. I guess living in an expensive area attracts crime because it's rich pickings. When they couldn't break into our storage (behind the car), they took it out on the car. All three panels on the near side and possibly a new bonnet. But what can you do? Getting cross won't achieve anything. I take comfort in the fact that I work hard and can afford a £30k Golf - they can't. Suffice to say my Orange now lives upstairs! Once resprayed I'm going to try and blag a full PaintShield/Di-Noc wrap through work.

....Finally got around to answering this! :rolleye:. I'm pretty sure that scribbled sign on a piece of paper is only there for the 'winter' months. I'll be asking when I book our next meet there.
