Title: MTM Edition 30 180mph
Post by: ali6n2 on December 06, 2013, 08:55:58 am
 
Just seen this on ebay

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Golf-GTI-Edition-30-/261337575548?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item3cd8eef07c

apparently it a 'limited edition' with a top speed of 180.

Genuine or a load of bollocks?

He's modded it... And I doubt a 300bhp GTI could reach a TRUE 180mph... Stage 2+ might though.

"IN & OUT MINT CONDITION. NO STONE CHIPS"

There's bird sh*t on the bonnet in the first pic :signLOL:

And the close-up of the exhaust shows the car is filthy.

My favourite parts are:

MTM Extras.
•MillTek Full Exhaust System From Turbo with Metal Catalyst. Cost 4,713 EURO
•MTM brake 380 x 34 mm with Brembo 8 piston calipers. Cost 5,091 EURO

...Top Speed of 180, which i riched!

Faster than M3, TT's, Evo's and a lot more. 0-60MPH in probably 4.9-5.3 second.

"Top Speed of 180, which i riched!" or "Dino Paper work with all MTM receipts"

It' so well cared for he/she couldn't be arsed to clean it properly for the photos.

Probably not owned by an enthusiast...

For what it's worth I had an indicated 174mph out of my stage 1 ed30 on the autobahn between the nurburgring and trier and I'm confident it would have eventually run onto an indicated 180 given enough room and not having to slow for traffic, obviously nowhere near a 'true' GPS verified 180mph but quick enough for a family hatchback with a bootfull of Bitburger  :grin:

Wow, that does look high at the back; especially for a 180MPH limited Edition MTM 2.0i DOHC 16v K04

Post by: karl210 on December 06, 2013, 05:59:24 pm
are these cars not limited to 155mph? Ive had mine upto 163(ish) on the clocks which im guessing was the 155mph limiter?

Most remaps remove the speed limiter Karl. :happy2:

Has anyone ever heard of MTM racing?

I don't think I would use them if they charge 4x the price for a milltek unless it's made out of titanium

Erm...yeah.
They're one of the biggest tuners of VAG cars in Gremany/Europe.  http://www.mtm-online.de/en/tuning/Audi (http://www.mtm-online.de/en/tuning/Audi).
Theres an MTM tuned RS6 rolling around here with somewhere in the region of 500-600bhp.

Thought the RS6 was that standard... 700+ tuned. My Bro's work colleague has one, not been in it though, supposed to be a bit :sick: inducing on full boost. :signLOL:

I'd heard that quoted but from an unreliable source,so I figured that it was BS. :evilgrin:
I think the figure was 750bhp.I thought that much power would have munched the gearbox but I guess not!
Although,now that I think about it,the owner claims to have the most powerful car on this island and that very small list includes a Murcielago(sp)!

RS6 runs tip instead of DSG, along with the SQ5, both have 483ftlb stock iirc  :innocent:

Woah, something very dodgy with that rear suspension!
Right rear light is screwed also. What a heap...
Title: Re: MTM Edition 30 180mph

One of us should contact the seller & ask about the dodgy rear suspension

Post by: swgti on December 09, 2013, 07:37:58 am
Am I right in thinking they've spent nearly £9.5k on that ????? And they can't even be bothered to get it cleaned properly to sell.

Seriously though if you're going to ask that price for a car I'd take a little more time and effort on your ad and at least check it for spelling mistakes!!!!

Old thread I found, wouldn't mind going to Germany to max out the Golf.  :driver:

Been there and done that with the Nurburgring, done hundreds of laps, but never had a car flat out on the unrestricted autobahn on the way, other than my old mk3 GTI 8V Which was slow as sheize (115mph max!!) - it was faster down the hill at Fuchsrohre on the 'ring (120! woop)
