Thanks just need to get it booked into r-tech find it really slow compared to my mk5 stage2+
-
What's the cars Spec?
Wait till the weather is wet. Then you will see a real difference in the traction. :driver:
I wanted a rising blue R and finally got one. My second choice was white. Think the car looks great in that colour.
I've never seen a white R on the road. Only at shows.
-
Very nice. As above not seen any white r's around.
-
Welcome, looks great :jumpmove:

It's dsg
With touch screen stereo, cloth interior wich looks really nice in person , 19" alloys
To be honest I've not seen any mk6 r on the road since I've got it !
Does anyone know how many were made?
-
Very nice - I think about 2500 were made
-
Lovely motor pal. It won't take much work to get it outperforming your old GTI. Stock maps are very tame, low on torque, and don't forget it'll be a bit heavier than a mk5 GTI.
No k03 car will come close to a 2+ CDL.

Thanks for the nice comments,
Have you got the loba pump on yet ? And tuned would like to know what figures you made!!
Ps the boys at r tech have got a very long booking in time!!! But they the only one I trust so be worth the wait

Yeah they're worth the wait, definitely.
As it happens the pump went on today, but it's still at Statller's as it needs a new injector!
As for power, it's making 270bhp and 345lb/ft on the recent Stage 2 map, and I'm going to stay on that map for the time being. The Loba, for now, is primarily for avoiding the fuel cuts I've been getting with the Stage 2 map. But it means that when I go k04 I'll have one less thing to worry about.
I could do the intercooler and intake, then get a 2+ map put on, but I've decided to do the turbo while I'm at it and go straight to a Stage 3 map once all the hardware's sorted.
It should run nicely on the Stage 2 map with the Loba.

The Mk6 R is actually a pretty rare car, just 1,088 were sold in the UK according to this article
http://www.pistonheads.com/features/ph-features/vw-golf-r-vs-audi-s3-blood-brothers/27614
I had a Mk6 R in white previously and you definitely don't see many white ones.
-
Looking at that review make me feel a little better about my paint as their R also has the rear bumper in a different shade :smiley:
And yours looks great
-
Looking great mate, only ever seen 2 mk6 r's on the road and one was my mates. Anyone know the actual number on uk roads?
Very nice - I think about 2500 were made
Is the figure 2500 just white r's or all of the mk6 r's?
-
lovely car that!
-
love these. a natural progression from the ed30 i think. or thats what ill be after next.
-
Definitely not 2,500 6R's, more like 1,000. (-1 as I managed to write my first one off).
Lovely car OP :driver:

True, but look at what you replaced it with, kinda worked out well in the end
