Hi folks, just purchased my first German vehicle. Previously been in quite a few Renaults and a Fiat  :grin:

Then I got a Clio 200, boss little car, mainly used for track days

Anyway thought it was about time I pulled my finger out and bought something with potential.

Reminds me of when I got my first one, that was grey and DSG. I think grey is the best colour.

Enjoy it dude, 350bhp, DSG and chassis mods makes for a proper weapon of a road car. :)

Welcome!

Looks as though you've had some interesting cars in the past. Would love a clio track car myself!
You'll enjoy the ED30 - they are great as standard, and a few tweeks make them even better. I've got VWR springs & H&R ARB's on mine - make a great difference.
Better brakes really are needed - have done a couple of trackdays in mine and the brakes did not inspire confidence...

PS - is this the car with only 29k on it?
