did you ever map your car?
I have all standard parts apart from the exhaust.
it's a shame to do this as I have only had the power and brakes for a short time,
but I fancy something newer and 4 wheel drive.

Yeah mines been mapped and had the DPF gutted, which would be the only things staying when I come to sell.

I want to go back to petrol and also have 4WD.

Looking at an S3 sportback/saloon at the moment..

Also debating a comfy cruiser like an A6 avant or similar Mercedes..

Mine's custom stage 2 so needs the mods for the map.
Niki did say something about 70% cycle so not full stage 2.
it is impressive but I also fancy 4WD and something younger that hasn't done 84k

Mines on 107k now so I too want something newer mileage wise. Not that there's anything wrong with the Leon at all.

All depends what deals are about at the time as to what I get next. Looking to lease/pcp something.

Not heard from anyone for the parts, a little surprised :(
Anyway added a poll as I'm finding it very hard to decide on my next car.

Are they in the for sale section too?

I voted the Leon but the M135i would be close second.


I haven't looked in the for sale section today, just cars I've looked at on autotrader and considered.
I keep wanting 6 cylinders. I did originally want an S3 saloon, but prices seem to be going up :(

I meant are your parts in the for sale section lol. S3 was on my list but a tad too expensive

Not selling the brakes then :p

I like the Octavia, think they are quite underestimated and not very obvious it's a performance car.

Thats ok mate, looking at PCP's.
That £252 must only be a lease, PCP from audi was looking like over £400 and
even carwow proces have gone over £36000 with the spec I'd want.

sorry mate replied to latest messages :doh:

as for brakes, well if I get a 290/300 :)rolleyes:) then they can go on that.
same for octavia ( and yeah this would be a great daily )
If not then I would sell them yes.
