Looks great that! Is it just springs, or have u got spacers on their as well now? Track looks slightly wider?

did u fit the boost guage yourself?

yeah the raider alloys have a simailr finish to the 18inch Monza alloys that u get on MK5 Golf GTIs. Be warned though, if u ever kerb them, they are nigh on impossible to repair. apparently only a handful of places in the whole of the uk can repair these finishes.

i was 21 when i got a 197. 0 years NCB equated to £1400 per year. Though i do live in a dodgy manchester postcode.

The mk4s maybe, but they weren't fit to wear the GTI badge. The MK5s totally different, more power and with dsg will hit 60 in 7. add in plenty of torque, and they'll easily keep up with a 182 on the open road.

On the subject of whether it is cup packed..... does it have a jack with it? None of the cup packed cars and R27s came with a jack.... Not conclusive proof, as an owner could have kicked up a fuss and got a jack free, but just something extra to consider.

Yup, i felt a similar thing when i drove my mate's Golf GTI with DSG. The super smooth delivery throughout the rev range makes these turbo hatches feel effortlessly quick. We both went on a trackday later, and on straights he was pretty much same as me in my 197 cup when i expected him to...

car looks really good as is. if u get turinis, just stick to the usual. anthracite, silver etc.. i kno u probably wanna stand out a bit, but ornage would just look god awful in all honesty.

if you type "mod chip" into ebay you'll find this amazing chip thingy that gives you an extra 25bhp for just £24.99 That'll get u started yeh?

yup, the 306s are great. Along with the 106s the last decent Peugeot in my opinion.

cool pics.... i have a similar one of my r27! went a while back but i kinda stumbled upon the roads. anyone know postcode i shud stamp into the tomtom to just get straight there?

it was a one-off special for Jimbo666. In honour of his brother i believe. However, i think lhd markets can still get a white r27 tho if i'm not mistaken.

Ha ha... awesome! Its a silly price to fill up with everytime, but i'd definitely be like u. Would have to give it ago at least once.

I know everyone is saying its a "shift now or else you're buggered light" BUT.... I've got a 172 brochure in front of me and in the features section it says.... and i quote, "OPTIMUM GEAR SHIFT INDICATOR". Just to confuse matters.....
