Right, was looking for something faster than the GTi, spacious, reliable, and something that was going to be alright on the motorway...



Snapped it up at a nice price, and it's remapped to 265bhp






Haven't got any pics of my own, but its the same as that, could do with a nice buffing as some panels are a bit faded

Opinions though ?

and the seat I have is remapped to 265 bhp.... feels far quicker than the gti. I took the GTi out for a spin last night after driving the seat for a week, and the GTi feels like a 1.2 corsa. lol

Its not all that fun, can draw way too much attention from the police, and fuckers in 1.1 saxos who want to race

paint is a bugger, fades and colour match isnt great between the plastic and metal

nice cars though

always thought the interior is a big let down very cheap and dated looking

yeah colour match is the biggest downfall! I know what you mean on the interior, don't think its too bad though, but without the R thats stitched in it would look very plain.
