Looking forward to hearing your update.

WowWow. Looks absolutely stunning you must be very happy with it.

Ihaven't met him but read many of his threads and posts with a keen interest. As others have said best wishes to him.

That’s a shame.

I'm not sure if this is the right forum. I followed his build closely although have been off this forum for a few months and now cant seem to find it.

Same here £469 for a box is a bit more than i'd be comfortable paying. Guess i'll have to learn to enjoy it for what it is. Thanks for the input.

Thanks for this advice BigJase88. Its a shame but i suppose i will have to leave it. Out of interest how do the 2 engines differ? i'd have assumed it was just the ECU?

My car is a lease car and is the 130ps model rather than the 150ps. i am not expecting to turn it into a performance car but feel that with around another 30ps or so it would be a nicer car for daily use. Ideally i'd like some form of OBD solution that can easily be added and removed, think...

I’ve got same car engine and transmission combination and my experience couldn’t be more different. No snatching or kangarooing and I’m averaging well over 50mpg overall. You may need to get yours looked at.

Cheers. Thanks.

As per title I’ve just bought a 2016/66 (registered end of Nov 16) FR 184 TDI and pick it up Thursday. It’s got a couple of nice extras pan roof, black pack (roof,mirrors and wheels) and I am wondering as to whether it will have adaptive cruise control. Can anyone help?

Another reason then for me not to go back to Android. My iPhone works with CarPlay on any/every vehicle I’ve tried it with. It just works.

The Octavia really is a bit bigger than i need added to the fact that I am not that keen on it’s shape. I feel that the current Leon is the best looking of the MQB cars(well maybe the RS3 or TTRS although both are out of my budget)

Thanks for the replies. I have test driven a few cars this week and today. A3’s best feature is definitely its interior 2-3 steps up from the Leon. However I prefer everything else about the Leon! Considering it’s on the same floorpan it’s body control is far better and infact it is dynamically...

Just to add the current Golf R and it’s replacement will have a dsg gearbox.

I’m not sure as to whether I am asking in the right place for an unbiased answer but here goes..... I’ve pretty well always had VAG cars my loyalty is to VAG rather than to any of the individual brands and I’ve had VW’s,Audi’s,SEAT’s and Skoda’s infact numerous of each. I’ve currently got a...

Perfect exactly what I was looking for. Thanks. David

I’m looking at both although all other things being equal would prefer a 184bhp FR. How do I easily and quickly differentiate between the two? I know that the more powerful model has bigger front brakes and independent rear suspension although I’m sure the latter would only be obvious from...

I’m currently in a company GolfR which I love but buying privately I’m not looking to spend that sort of money. I find the current small petrol turbo engines a bit weedy (obviously doesn’t apply to the current golf with 310ps!) I ‘like’ the feel of a torquey turbo diesel. I had a mk 2 Leon FR...

Don’t get me wrong all other things being equal I would choose the 184. Is there likely to be any reliability differences between the two power outputs. In particular is the 184 more highly stressed? Thanks
