Re: 1.4 tsi 160 hp increase reliability / life support mods

Just to add about the Revo map. It should take your 160 to around 220. Mine runs 225-230 with a non res Milltek and panel. Before it was mapped it was running 173

Re: Where to go from here?

If you're considering the vehicles you've said, I'd also consider the RS3.

And here's another couple that I took the other day. The first picture has a filter on it as the lend on the phone was smeared and was a bit misty https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180528/986fd91ea07881232e5906e2f5e154ce.jpg https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20180528/6c490f6a5fc69d1b9a8d5a946a762e8f...

GTIInters 2018

Is anyone going to GTI International this year. I've been doing some correction work on my 'Roc so she looks pretty..... There's a fair few hours gone into it, with a few more still to do. My photography skills are somewhat lacking, but any advice is welcome. I never seem to be able to show my car o...

Re: Sorry to say it, but this site is on the decline

PCP has sorted that out Alan. 80%+ of all new car sales are on PCP now. People have £200 a month spare. They don't have £20,000. So the kids get in to a new car for a 'relatively' small outlay, free servicing etc, and in 2-3 years they give it back and get a new one. Just like they do with their sm...

Re: Sorry to say it, but this site is on the decline

Having thought about it, I seem to see so many youngsters driving around in high performance cars and wondering how they afford to run them.... When I was a lad (I'm making myself sound very old now at a very young 47) the cars I had were "rough" to day the least... MK1 Astra, MK1 Nova etc...

Sorry to say it, but this site is on the decline

I've just scrolled down some of the threads in the general area, and hardly any of the topics get any replies or very few....
Is the Scirocco such a niche car? Or have people just moved on?

Getting ready for show season

I've started prepping the 'Roc for the show season as it doesn't look I'm going to get my Polo GTI+ anytime this side of summer. Have her a good bath and decontamination then started to correct the paint. I've only managed to do one side of the car and the bonnet today. Will get the roof and other s...

First aid kit and warning triangle aren't legal requirements for a UK car. I believe they are on most of the continent though

Re: roofbars

You're really going to struggle unless you buy the OEM ones from VW.
I have a set of la pre-alpina and if I'm honest the fit is poor. Yes, they work, but are not perfect.
I'll be getting rid shortly as I'm changing to the new Polo GTI +.
