But i want to show off the replacement for my special and much loved mk5 GTI.
I had to think long and hard over what precisely i wanted so i kept the things i loved by the mk5 GTI and also got the things that i felt i missed in the long run. I loved the 2,0 TFSI engine but was ready to try the newer version, grip was an issue in the golf at nearly 500bhp. Also i'm not gotten younger and my experience on the DSG told me it would be able to handle what power levels i had planned for this one.
The obvious choice was an S3, but 3 reasons for me not to chose one was the very high price on one here in Denmark, to many of them and the fact that it has the old TFSI engine which meant i had already learned what i wanted about it. So the choice became the car in the title.
Rare as hell in the spec i wanted so 6 month went before i found the one i wanted in southern Germany.
Colour was a bit of a gamble but i have to say, IRL it is amazing to look at :happy2:

Keep us posted with all the upgrades (small or big), as your GTI topic was a pleasure to read.
More cosmetics that you can do:
1). rear aero wiper (I have the part numbers if you are interested)
2). TT aluminium footrest/dead pedal
3). Golf MK7 "spray" nozzles (to replace the jet type)
4). OEM rear number LED lights

Hi, the latest PN should be 8J1 864 777 B4 PK (older revision is 8J1 864 777 BF KZ).
I got mine from here (https://www.bks-tuning.com/oem-audi-a3-8p-tt-8j-dead-pedals.html). You can also see here (http://www.ebay.de/itm/NEW-Original-Audi-OEM-Sport-Dead-Pedal-Footrest-Audi-TT-TTS-TTRS-8J-MK2-/130684897675) depending on the overall cost for you.

Slight modification is required to remove the lower clip for perfect fitment.

This meant almost 2 month in the shop, and while i was at it i decided to try an aftermarket front end and 30mm wider front fenders. I'm not sure it's the right decision but i wanted to try, as an RS3 front end cost almost 4000gbp.
Judge for yourself, the plan is to fit the TT mk 2 front alloy hubs (25mm wider track each side) along with the camber adjustable lower alloy control arms also from the tt mk2.

Sorry, couldn't resist
It's impossible to judge how good the new front end looks until you fill those front arches. Aesthetically you might want another 10mm each side on top of what the TT bits give you. But that might push things a bit far in terms of geometry and handling.
Anyway, at least nobody was hurt. Apart from the deer. Must have been a bit of a shock. It's good to see the project go on!

Nice brakes and updates!
Any plans to match front and rear caliper colours?
How are the brakes feeling when in use?
As the front is off my old mk 5 gti, they were red. I would love to get them matched with the black rear calipers.
The front i know and they are great even on a fast track day. The rear are perhaps to big but i hope they will balance the setup and not just be pretty to look at :happy2:
