    4WD or Not 4WD

    Not 100percemt on this but I'm sure AWD was only available on European cars. I don't think the UK ever got the option. Don't quote me on that though. If we did get the option then they are very rare!! The AWD system was part time I think. Mainly FWD and assisted the rears when they lost grip.

    Topsport4 I think is AWD. Is the car originally from UK or is it from mainland Europe?

    AMK was 210bhp and BAM was 222bhp but commonly know as 225PS. Both map to the same torque and BHP figures.

    Welcome!!! CAVE engine was an oil burner causing many to burn out and were replaced. engine was 2010-2012 then the CTHE took over from 2012 onwards but that has still had a few issues but low key compared to the CAVE. Just remember forums are biased to faulty cars and there are loads of perfect...

    DSG on the motorway?

    Small claims court? I would like to think a Magistrate would believe the car was already knackered when sold and may split the cost 50:50?

    I agree you need to travel. You are unlikely to find a bargin or the dream car on your door step. I don't have much free time at the moment to spend a day going to look. Closest one to me that looks decent is 95miles and that's auto trader miles so is more like 110 miles

    It looks really good mate, a little overpriced i think as it is an 03 reg! I think they are based in West Bromwich (Birmingham) and that puts me right off!! Same as the Driveline sports performance people who have bad reviews all over the net! great pictures and then when you arrive its a pile...

    Good looking car mate! and well done for getting 1 at an early age. I got my first LCR when i was 21 and i was paying £700 for insurance but that was on a multicar policy with my rents as named drivers from Admiral. Not sure i would want a black box as the LCR persuades you to be heavy on the...

    Colour Change

    Agree with above, The Mk4 looks mint in white but i would go for the Neveda white whcih is metallic. The candy white is slightly creamier (only noticeable when side by side). Agree with black on white look though

    So they are probably estimating 15k resell in 3 years then depending on mileage. Equating to around 300pcm depending on deposits and what you paid for it Keep em coming
