Loving the rimmage! :notworthy:
me too, I've contacted VWR today :smiley:
-
ooooh nice!
-
Cheers guys,
I think the Vwrs are currently out of stock ? or they where last week when i was looking at there website,
Yes good to meet you Hurdy at the RR Day your car is awesome,
Not sure of the weight of the vwrs they feel about the same as the Monzas, (not a lightweight racing wheel)
Milltek,Brakes and Led rear lights next me thinks
Been holding out for Milltek to bring the twin centre pipes out for the mk6, hopefully shouldn't be too long now the R is out ?
-
nice wheels. :happy2:
have to say i love the new gti looks more than the R, i would keep the pipes out in the corners rather than in the middle looks much better IMO :smiley:
-
Weight is 28.8 Lbs per alloy.

-
Very smart. Those VWR wheels are ace!
-
Everytime i see photos of your car i wish i had gone for red :happy2: but you know that :grin:
I do wonder what these wheels would look like on a shadow blue. :sad1:
-
:congrats: very nice combo
-
How you finding the revo? is yours DSG or manual?
Planning on getting the mk6 done myself but was wondering how it gets on with the dsg

Mine is Dsg and no problems at all, the car is a totally different animal when Revo'd,
Just have to be gentle on the gas pedal in this weather,
DSG soooo smooth :happy2:
-
Dragging up an old thread but is the car on standard set up? Did you opt for the ACC?
-
looks the biz got 3 door just like yours 59 plate red rockin mate
-
I sooo wish I hadn't looked at your thread ... The mk6 is really growing on me.
And re your old mk5, I thought redrobin and I were tge only milly quadders on here. Came as a surprise to see a third.
Great car mate. Now I want one (thanks) :sad1:
:wink:

After a truck forced me off the road :scared:

mk6 gti growing on me
love the wheels,1 week turnaround to get wheels refurbed?that was quick
truck drivers think they own the roads they never give way
-
A month turnaround :wink: i was busy at work and had trouble finding the colour match, but now all is well :jumpmove:
Bloody lorry drivers, it was hit the kerb or truck take full side of the car out :sad1:
-
Has to be one the best looking GTIs ever :happy2:
Do the LEDs give you a warning when the bulb is out? 2011 MYs are getting it standard I hear.
-
.
I'm not a great fan of the Mk6 but they do cosmetically improve hugely when modified (thinking of SteveP's as well).
Your red one is looking very good. :happy2:

Thanx for all the kind remarks, it shows several bulb out warning lights but a quick tick on vagcom sorts it out :smiley:
The standard rear lights on the MY11s are the cherry red leds i think not the darkened R rears :wink:

*Sharp intake of breath* - You can imagine the £,£££ value if it displayed *GTI* instead of *GTT*. Hats off to you for not illegally modifying your plate. :happy2:

Yes its a pity you can't get an ''I'' Have to make do with GTTurbo instead :happy2:
Think modding the plate to look like something it's not is a bit chavvy :smiley:
-

....Usually yes - Chavvy. Occasionally gets away with it if it's strictly only a spacing mod and on a cool car. I saw *S3 OOOU* on a black S3 yesterday which looked cool. But soon after (both on M5) I saw a plate totally altered to read a person's name and thought how pretentious.

Hows everyone doing on the other mk5 site Robin, havn't been on there for a while now,
My name on there is Carnell (remember me :laugh:)

I rarely visit 'the other site' from whence many of us came - Not for any negative reasons but simply because it's more vibrant here.

Yes all seems a bit quite on there last time i was on :confused:
Are you planning another trip to the ring anytime soon ?
I am looking to go sometime this year but keep missing the posts :ashamed: they allways seem to be within a few days when i see them,
note to self must be more observant :smiley:

....I want to go to another private trackday on the 'Ring in August but it was expensive (but very worth it) and I don't know yet if I'll have the dosh. Also, my 'room-mate' Hurdy can't make it and that helps each of us with the costs. Otherwise, I'll be looking out for a trip with the forum guys here but I've become a bit spoilt about Touristfahrten days and think I'd rather save for another trackday.
