This is a demonstrator model, and the dealership blacked out all the chrome, lowered the springs. I looked at it today, and it has a very powerful presence.

Econobox - this word has often cropped up in posts when referring to the Golf Gti. After encountering this again in another mildly charged post the other day, I stopped to think that I don't quite see it like this. My interpretation of an econobox is super cheap, small, small motor, very few...

Not a fan of white rims normally, but this car is something special. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=Up4TmmJF9Q0

When I had my MK7 GTi I flirted with the idea of getting a PP GTi, a little research led me to this Oettinger in the pics below. The dealership was quite far from me, but the sales guy was very kind and drove through with the car to my office. Before actually driving the car, I was pretty...

Today could not come quick enough, but finally got my hands on an R with the following options:- Dynamic Chassis Control Sunroof Discover pro 2 radio with SatNav App connect/Mirrorlink High beam light assist Keyless Nappa/Carbon fibre seats Rearview Camera Dynaudio excite sound system PDC front...

Hi Chaps, I'm spending this weekend contemplating upgrading to an R with the following specs:- Lapiz Blue Pretorias Adaptive Chassis Control - ??? Sunroof Discover pro radio with Satnav - ??? High beam light assist - ??? Keyless Nappa/Carbon fibre seats Rearview Camera Dynaudio excite sound...

I really like my GTI, but from time to time get a tad annoyed with the wheel hop/spin, and feel a little more power would be handy. I'm not really one for mods, but yesterday decided to try out a GTI with a stage 1 Oettinger conversion, putting out 206kw and 425nm. I've already driven a...

This happened last weekend, on a popular breakfast run pass in Cape Town. By all accounts, Clubsport S driver lost control trying to overtake on a bend, the results are below.

After jumping straight out of my Gti, and into the Clubsport, then spending 20 minutes on a few twisties and straights:- The power response is very crisp, and seems to hold the revs at the top for longer than my Gti, not to mention the acceleration is far more brutal. The sound of the DSG...

Looking awesome Hulk. Btw, did you post this on Reddit, or is someone using your car pic? Nothing like new wheels https://www.reddit.com/r/GolfGTI/comments/5s61hr/nothing_like_new_wheels/

Installed a watch face that matches the GTI [/URL][/IMG]

First off, your car looks superb, I really enjoyed reading through the thread on Vortex. What struck me more though, was your courage, determination and strength displayed to overcome a tragic setback. Stay strong and keep giving all.

Took my car for a few laps on a track for the first time ever today. To say it was exhilarating, would be an understatement. I had a driving instructor with me, and his advice made for a super experience. The GTI is such a capable car. Also drove 2.5V6 Reynards for around 18 laps too, was...

Those look absolutely bloody fantastic. My preference is to stay stock, but if I ever deviated from this, these would be a humungous consideration. Please post more pics

That looks stunning. Hope all goes well.

:) Had a good chuckle at your response. ....and yes, it looks pretty darn sweet indeed.

The longer I have owned the car, the seemingly better it becomes. I hope your car brings smiles to your faces, like it does mine. Pointless thread, but this forum has been a little "tense" of late, and I browse here with the hope of learning something new, reading about experiences, witnessing...

That's one of the nicest R's I have seen. Amazing colour & those wheels give a nice aggressive stance.

I love stats/graphs/display etc, therefore really like your display... As for what I did with my GTI yesterday, I did a 200 mile run, that included rain, fog and sunshine. Loved every second of it.

That looks pretty darn good! No seat warmers on Dutch GTI's?
