And next sunday when Jonny gets his New Beast... the old man gets jonnys Mk 5... I cant wait... my mk6 stage one has never felt as solid as his mk5.. and the new 5 box feels a lot more sleeker than my current mk6....
-
Picked up the new R yesterday, completely blown away by everything about it. Completely different league to the GTI, but I will miss it.
I'm trying to resist the modding though!!

Niceeeeee got any plans for it?? :evilgrin:
-
Dat ass :drool:
-
Very nice car Jonny.
How well do these things go? I haven't read too much about them yet so may aswell ask someone who is experiencing it first hand!
-
Niceeeeee got any plans for it?? :evilgrin:
Haha of course! First thing im looking at getting is a front spoiler make it look more aggressive, NeilP suggested the oettinger spoiler, just can't decide :fighting:.
Then eventually the R600 intake + a rear carbon spoiler.

Drives + handles like a dream, and you can actually drive it sensibly if you want :innocent:
-
I would say the front spoiler off the grey one looks a lot meaner :evilgrin:
-
It sticks to the road like it is glued to it..... you throw it through the bends and it defies all the laws of physics... totally awesome beast :laugh:
-
Wow that steel grey mk7 R looks :drool:
-
That front spoiler looks amazing.
-
Great day for the R, not even cleaned it in a week and it looks its shiny as hell :)

Thanks.... wondered how this got here! :signLOL:
-
I saw a TR MK7 GTI as I was walking into work this morning, made me want to walk straight down to the VW Garage and buy one haha
-
Bit of an update for the wrong reason...
A lovely bit of reversing from a woman driver caused this damage yesterday.... Absolutely fuming to say the least.

I was enjoying looking through this thread and then seen these photos at the end and i'm gutted for you fella. I seriously got that sick feeling in the pit of my stomach and its not even my motor. :sick:
I have been there with something similar in the past all i can offer you is scant comfort at this point, that once you get through the hassle of repairing it you'll feel much better. Of course you'd probably right now put that effort into beating the shyte out of the tosser who did it, i know i did :grin: but thankfully i did channel that energy into get my car repaired. All the best :happy2:
-
Thats absolutely gutting. I'd go mad as well if that was my car.
-
Oh that sucks - alloy, wing, & the door. Sorry to read this - hope she admitted full liability, but its always a hassle you never want to be put on you...
Hope it will be repaired to the standard you want.
-
I hate accidents like this, so easily avoidable and cause massive ball ache to get fixed quickly and to a high standard.
Good luck with repairs and hope she admits fault.
-
That's a beauty! :driver:
It'll be hard not to mod the beast.
-
Cheers guys, Get the car back tomorrow can't wait :)
-
Ouch, this is my the misses often says to be " we'd have been closer parking at home" as i park in the furthest corner of the car park
-
Looks very nice in red
-
Its a great car when people aren't smashing into me! Only seem to update this thread when things go wrong!

Sorry for this incident! Hope you get it back repaired soon! :smiley:
-
Wtf?! Are you beginning to feel like the car is cursed?
Seriously though, feel for you mate. Hope it gets sorted soon because that is a lovely motor.
-
OMG :sick:
So sorry to see that fella :sad1:
-
Are you sure you're not driving around drunk!
-
How'd that happen ??

Ha no there's just too many f*cking idiot drivers in Cumbria! Needs a health warning :fighting: :fighting:
How'd that happen ??
Driving along, woman in the middle just wiped me out. Nice 10k worth of damage...
-
Jeebus wept, that's pretty unlucky - nearly unheard of.
Sorry to see bud. You can bet your bottom dollar if you tried parking badly everywhere you went (like some c**ts do) you wouldn't have had a scratch on it, sods law :phew: :sad1:
Take some solace in that; if you were in the equivalent S3 or similar dark coloured Audi, no fu**er lets you out of junctions or flashes you to go, so there is a plus side to having an R even if it's damaged :grin: :wink: :rolleye:
-
OUCH!!
Sorry to see this fella. :sad1:

The only time my cars have been hit has been when i owned red ones ! Mk1 GTI and a 2.8 Capri! Never had a red one since.
