undecided at moment given the economic climate, plan was to sell it when i can order a r20t, have spoken to APS about some KW springs which they have put on a car i have seen which reduce that gap in the arches

Very true neg, would be an impossible one to descide which to drive every morning, lol

How much do the KW springs lower the rocco by, i would love to see it lowered, do it  :drool:

£300 inc VAT fitted from APS, they have done a couple which does not affect the ACC, its not quite as agressive as the H&R drop either

i think its horses for courses between the two, the extra power on the GTI comes into play on the motorway and you can make rapid progress without too much attention, the scirocco comes into its own on A & B roads but does get you noticed, fortuantely i now have managed to get the DRLs turned off so less obvious
