Used for 4 months but now i have purchased another car for commuting, so it isn,t going to get much higher this year.

wigit:
loving the route you've gone with this  :happy2:

Janner_Sy:
what tyres are they?

4k isnt that much though, ive only managed 1500 miles in 4 months of owning it, a third of that was driving to and fro mansfield to get it mapped lol.

on a side note have you seen the recent thread on SCn about one of the guys engines melting a piston and damaging the crank due to the injectors not flowing enough, and theres another in the stealers having his changed under warranty i think.  

Apparently there were revised fuel pumps and injectors from the end of 2010, so might be worth a check on yours.

Did you ever get hold of your dyno graph BTW?

No sign of the the graph. Had the car upside down. I,m on the Dyno early July and will be sure to keep hold of that one for you :happy2:. Tyres are Yokohama Spec 2,s.

There are always problems with people blowing engines IMO. I remember all the problems with the mk2 Cupra,s but i never had any with my K1. I,m hoping that VW made their engines a little better than the ones they gave to Seat :wink:.     

Deacon:
Car looks fantastic!  :happy2:
