Hi all.
Finally bought myself an R having spent the last few months looking for a GTI as I knew if I passed up the R I would be kicking myself every time I saw one, although they do seem few and far between where I live.
It's an 11 plate Pearl Black/Black Pearl which ever way round it is, 61000 miles, FSH and comes with pretty much everything I wanted. It's completely standard and have no real plans for modifying it. This is a dealer photo...
...and left the dealers having had a full service. When we finally agreed a price I said I wanted the cam follower changing because of everything I'd read over the last week or so on various forums. When I've gone to pick up the car today he said it had been replaced and had the old one to show me, and this is what it looks like...
...which has left me wondering what all the fuss is about?
The only real annoyance I've got is that I'm seeing "km/h" instead of mph in the digital display, and the wing mirrors don't automatically fold in when I lock the car but have read that Vag-Com should be able to sort that out?, is there any recommended Vag-Com People that I could contact?
I'm sure I'll be reading more threads/asking more questions now I actually own the car.
Thanks
