had a run against a friends MK6 Golf R DSG Stage 2 Revo (downpipe, intake and hpfp), Neck and neck up to around 200 kph then we slowed down!
I should be pleased with that considering my Cupra is only a Revo stage 1 (intake and cat-back)

not really today but i have booked a test drive in a Skoda Octavia VRS tdi for this weekend.

the cupra might be going

Why's everybody de-Cupra-ing themselves!?!
Did the economy take a turn for the worse without me noticing?

...granted I've just gone diesel as well...

There's a 'special edition' at the minute too, isn't there? Throwing in a couple of grand of extras for free? Maybe that's a different spec...

I know the feeling I do 300 miles very week costing £70 and that's just my cat her car does around 280 miles a week and takes £70 a fortnight hers is diesel if course.

Had the latest DSG software uploaded this morning at IMG. Now I'm waiting for the postman to arrive with my brake lines so I can get these beasts on the car :D

So after a few trips into seat they finally agreed something was wrong with my handbrake and it shouldn't be so hard or noisy when pulled!

Cables were replaced today so it's really nice, after a year of ownership, to have a silent handbrake! :D
