Im in a dilema here
Ive removed the rear airbags and fitted the kw v1s on the rear
Im selling the car so i dont know if its best to refit the rear airbags and sell the car with the air ride or remove the air ride and fit the kws
If anyone is interested in buying the kws for what they owe me i think It be easier for me to do it that way
Would come with new top mounts and shortened drop links
bagged fr , k1 rep , 19s

My guess is it depends on how much interest you get in the car with Air Ride vs KW's
It would seem better to sell the car with the air ride and sell KW's on there own as i suspect you will get more interest in KW's than Air Ride system. But I suspect you need to see how much interest you get in the car with air ride fitted - They look great but I suspect a much smaller set of people want a car with them fitted vs the KW's

Thats what i thought as the majority would prefer a good set of coilovers as it's hassle free driving and it still would look a great car at a static height.
Only a few members on here mentioned they was interested in kw for their leons so if they was to want them it'd save me removing the fronts and all the wiring for the air management lol

No wind deflectors they make to much noise so you cant hear the exhaust that you will modify.
Then there is the 4wd convertion to consider (yes I am joking but they are already out there).
And make sure your VCDS has the latest cable or get an OBD11 so you can mod the car more.

The R is a sound car but personally I prefer the Cupra as its a car you have to drive rather than the R which is more point and go, no hanging on and preying 
that you are going to make it.
Oddly a guy came on last week saying his 4wd Cupra ST is not as fast as his old 290 ST, the 4 wheel drive on the VAG Cars does take a bit of the enjoyment out of hitting it hard.
Anyway lots of lease cars (both golf and cupra) going back on the maket so I expect prices will reflect the fact that both VW and SEAT have been pricing these cars to sell and in turn then flooding the second hand market, added to which you have the MK4 out in 2019.

If it's on your phone get a picture resize app and shrink it down (has to be less than 1mb) then you should be good, there's a guide in my signature about externally hosting pics if you prefer.Won't let me, says files too big
Yesterday went for a remap to find that the turbo was sticking and there was a CAM sensor issue. Pretty disappointed as you can imagine, think I’ve fixed the CAM sensor issue but can’t really tell without anyway if reading the code.
As for the turbo, I’m considering my options.

Bad times! every car this an issue like this in it's life!
Hope you get it sorted soon!
It’s one after the other at the minute lol, just had the clutch replaced as a clutch bearing went. When I first got the car I had the cambelt / waterpump changed, I have some drop links I need to sort, CAM sensor, starter motor, turbo sticking.
I think a lot of it is due to the car having been a run around for a lady owner, car was serviced on time and that was that. Now that I have it and I’m driving it a bit harder any weak points are being found.
