If you'd have got the geo sorted while I was away, kept her oiled, insured & clean Andy 4 hours ago the answer would probably been yes

Bit of a trek Richmond tho lol

Went up in the super thirsty but equally super awesome APR Golf R thanks to Sy 'janner_Sy' aka rectal rooter aka sticker homo.  Massive thanks to Sy.

Will try and write a Propper review but here are a few thoughts and snaps

















On start up she sounds fantastic.  The sound driving round normally (inside the cabin) is much throaghtier and soooo addictive! I've heard a few bizzarre descriptions but to me it has the quality spun of a bigger powerful car.

I only did a couple of 40/50 - 75 (70 on gps) runs and it sounded brilliant but it's hard to describe how I'd compare the high rev noise to the miltek. I can't wait to hear it on drive by! I need to get out and do some more miles on my own so I can give it some beans  :evilgrin:

The quality of the system looks superb  :drool: :drool: top marks to Dave & Nige

Also owe Dave a massive thanks for waiting around late for me to pick her up on my only day off. Set off nice and early but TFSI_Wifes Lupo had a blow out leaving us recovered back to Notts with no transport  :sick:

Overall happy Mike  :smiley:

Bit more driving & review to follow and some sound clips.
