It's not an Audi so you can rule out the S3 or RS3 :wink:

Well today the Mk6 went and I picked up the first of two cars.

Introducing the new daily driver: -



2.0TDI 140 Sport DSG, with virtually no extras but very low miles ready for me to stick 40k on it in the next 12 months  :rolleye:

While I will miss the Mk6 I won't miss my fuel bills, on the way to the garage today the Mk6 got 31.2MPG on a mixed run, the same journey back in the Jetta was 49.8MPG, estimate it will save me at least £300 a month  :pomppomp:

First mod already completed, the install of an RNS-510 LED  :smiley:

New project car should be sorted by the end of May  :party: :party:

Aha! So this is why you were after a MK5 jetta/golf front and rns-510, right?

Are you going to fit a reversing camera?

Any pics of the interior?

I expect the second vehicle to be a little less, er, frugal with fuel!  :grin: :driver:

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

^^^ Basically yes about the bumper and RNS.

Yes work in underway to make a RVC kit for it, No moving badge on the Jetta though  :sad1:

Interior is very basic: -



But looks better with the RNS in: -



A Mk6 Steering wheel and maybe a highline dash will sort out the interior  :party:

Correct the new project isn't about efficiency  :evilgrin: :evilgrin: :evilgrin:

No heated seats?
Does it have aircon?
Midline dash.
No MFSW.
No cruise control.

Did you buy a poverty spec or something?  :P
It's a big drop from your MK6 spec. What are you doing about audio, other than a HU? Surprised you sold your sub - unless you're doing a proper install?  :scared:

Look foward to seeing what your gonna purchase as the weekend car steve, If its Vw as you say it will be, im sure it will be another TFSI/TSi or maybe 2 extra coilpacks as standard of some sort  :happy2:

Very nice jetta, and that will keep lots more money in the pot  on a monthly basis, thats untill the other one uses up what youve gained im sure :grin:

Yep it was more about the price and the mileage this one, I will retro fit the important stuff  :smiley:

Audio will be sorted with a proper install over time.

Hmmm. Methinks that my theory that I discussed with Saint Steve may well be coming true.

Steve knows what I'm guessing - 1st part was about spot on (I say about as I didn't guess it would have a boot!) - 2nd part may come true too :innocent:
