Hi All, Looking at switching to a Golf R late next year. What is the real world mpg? Please add as much info as possible. Mine will be a 5 door dsg with stage 1 tune. I estimate mpg 25/30mpg. Anymore will be great:D:D Coming from a GTD I estimate around £100 pcm more in fuel costs. Thanks...

Hi Guys, Currently have a remapped GTD & I have an itch that needs scratching:o. My GTD is no slouch & has shown up so called faster cars. All that info is contained in my remapped GTD thread 220 bhp 500 nm of torque... But... I really want a Golf R. I will be picking my next car in the next...

Hi Guys, My GTD came with Bridgestones, which I don't rate. Poor grip & very noisy. Since my remap to 220 bhp & 500nm of torque I don't feel they are up to the job. What tyres suit a performance Golf the best? I have always rated P Zero's and told the Conti's are good. Many Thanks, Rappy:cool:

Hi Guys, For the first time, I have let my Golf run down to nearly empty. Showing 5 miles till empty. How many miles will the reserve tank last?. I have a further 26 miles to travel, should I risk it? Thanks in advance, Rappy :cool:

I always find this debate on going & everyone has opinion. Still considering getting rid of my GTD for a R. The reason being I fancy a faster more powerful Golf. Ok, I could go the remap or tuning box route. But the thought of nearly zero traction in the first 3 gears has no advantages to me...

Having owned my GTD for almost a year. I think I have only ever switched to sport, a hand full of times. Well after a week of driving in sport, my findings are.... I drive the car harder & faster in sport. Just curious what mode everyone else uses & why? For me, normal for everyday. And Sport...

Is there any truth in a super quick GTD- R?. Just had a friend pay a visit today as I'm still off work after my accident. He mentioned about a GTD R 2016/ 2017. Is this simply a load of hype. Truth or fiction? Rappy :cool:
