Title: Red GTI GY05 ZVJ was B20 NYE
Post by: usmangti on August 04, 2015, 08:47:44 pm

A friend of mine is looking at this car and with the mods on it looks like could be an ex forum car? Any one recognise it? Or can give some back ground on it, thanks.

270bhp sounds like a very ambitious figure, im guessing there is no paperwork to confirm this?

It does feel very quick must admit. Overall it seems a nice car, but no proof of re map though, hence trying to track the previous owner. He's gonna get it in at R-Tech as I told him the dangers if its not mapped well but tbf the power delivery is smooth and ran a VCDS scan to check for any faults and so far so good.

Forgot to add, the chap who was selling the car, had received it as part ex for a Q7, supposedly.
