Boggo standard at the mo, 18" Monza 2 alloys, but about to  go Stage 1 as well. Just trying to decide where to get it done! Had quite a few cosmetics to sort out first, and a big service including getting cam follower sorted. It's important to make sure your car is tip top before getting it mapped apparently. Love driving it, it's the best Golf I've had so far.
