Re: New car thread! Golf content!
I've been having a look around in the daylight - it seems the carbon fibre fairy has been sprinkling her magic over my car, which is nice.
Grill, side badges and rear defuser all upgraded from standard gloss black items.

Re: New car thread! Golf content!
I've done a load more driving now and formed some more opinions. Brain dump: I love the steering and balance, VERY bmw, definitely reminding me of the M3 now - it seems to pivot around the centre of the car whereas the golf used to very obviously pull you from the front. The gearing definitely short...

Re: New car thread! Golf content!
Outstanding purchase. What’s the gearing like? (max for 2rd & 3rd, motorway speed rpm etc) Has FECPOTY 2021 voting closed yet? 👍🏻 it only arrived this afternoon, so not had much chance beyond an initial thrash round the country roads. I'm heading out again in a bit - I'll try and get a more obj...

not a lot of choice in the matter - they come with black with blue detail or black with orange detail. Mine has blue!Sundayjumper wrote: ↑Fri Nov 19, 2021 6:15 pm Interior pics ? If it's black then I'll allow this purchase.

Re: Guess the repair bill
It's kind of crazy that we still paint cars when it's so costly to fix them, surely precoloured panels could be better. or maybe we do still paint cars because it makes a lot of money!

Re: New car thread! Golf content!
Cool car, it looks very nice and has a playful aggression... if Nike Air Max trainers were a car, they'd be this. Also, the colour is really interesting, it looks like metallic version of Pantone cool grey 1, rather than silver. #i look down at my Nike Air Max's.... ah. Yeah, the sales studio photo...

Re: New car thread! Golf content!
I'm impressed that the bike fits. Both wheels off - how do you fit them in? Did you end up just finding one at the right price and jumping on it? The silver looks a lot nicer than the usual BMW artic silver, particularly with the black details. yep, both wheels off and back in first and it just cle...

Re: New car thread! Golf content!
Very nice Rich 8-) Initial impressions? Particularly compared to the previous 2 M3s. Speed: i don't know if it feels any quicker than the e92, but very familiar in the way it puts the power down - nicely overwhelming the rear tyres and then hooking up. Quick without feeling like you'll die if you d...

Those bikes don't look comfortable in the air, but how much of that is the bike design compared to modern designs.

Closest I ever got to that was my first car - '86 scirocco (I was born in '80.) I can't see myself getting anything older than that any time soon!

Re: Harry’s Garage
It would have been great to do a proper 3 door conversion like an Impreza - but I understand why that wouldn't be possible. But the random black (carbon presumably) stick on rear arches are just plain lazy (and weird looking). At least Jaguar committed to making and painting some proper wide arches.
