roberth

It was good to meet up with you all again, thanks for the invite. Had an interesting drive home, followed this flame throwing, popping Golf GTI. Had trouble keeping up with it, only to find out when pulling up alongside it at a roundabout for a chat, that it had 420 horses !!!

Thanks for the invite guys, look forward to meeting you all again. Who's Coming TheBlondeFella Stobsie Paul Lustral + 1 or 2 Ashleyman Fastgolf roberth+1

It was great to come along and meet some old faces and new ones, the breakfast wasn't half bad either. Hope to see you all on the next meet. Thanks again for the invite.

Thanks to fastgolf for inviting me along, can't believe it's been 4years since we last met when I had my 7R. Enjoyed the chat and the breakfast and of course the company.

No one seen this yet? Mk8 Golf R due out 2022 with 328bhp and 0-60 of 4.5 sec

apologies, resubmitted

☹️ see you guys in the New Year.

I'll come along, either Sunday for me.

Nice one Oliver, my views entirely and I couldn't have put it better myself. Yes, the super sport seats do look the business but are not that supportive and took me a while to get used to them. The full width rear view camera image on the R is also a lot better than the squishy version on the RS, something that Audi seem reluctant to fix. Also on the RS the pre installed low resolution radio logos are rubbish and can't be manually loaded, plus the selected radio station cannot display music information on the same screen, where as the R can. However, that super sound track of the sports exhaust at full chat leaves those little niggles behind. I would also recommend the R, but if you are thinking of progressing then the RS3 FL will not disappoint.

No it doesn't because it isn't clear, its black same as the moulding. see the above video from Haych

^^^^^ Twins, but not identical

Just passed 1100 miles in my FL RS3 and loving it. Hearing that 5 cylinder burble in Sport/Dynamic mode ( with pan roof open) when accelerating past 4000 revs is very addictive. When the engine has run in and you start using full throttle the MPG will drop dramatically, I'm seeing 25/27 on a spirited long combined drive. Totally agree with the mag ride and handling and finding it better than the R.

Thanks for that Ash, 😢

Hi Ash, I can't see this meet under 'Events', is this the right group ? - (UK MK7 Golf R Owners Club)

Hope you have a speedy recovery and I'm looking forward to the meet.

Yes, love to come along, have you a date in mind yet ?

Totally agree with you about the black badges, this will probably be my first mod.

This is the reason why I've been returning my G7R to stock, for me it was a natural progression

Yes Stobsie.

^^^^^^ Nice one Dom, pleased you like it.

I have this one :- https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Milltek-SSXVW399-Golf-R-MK7-Cat-Back-Exhaust-Resonated-Valved-3-Polish-GT100-EC/232512979049?fits=Model%3AGolf|Plat_Gen%3AMK+VII&epid=600689430&hash=item3622da8069:g:KooAAOSwax5YypVV I'm not overly keen on really loud exhausts but this one suits me just fine. Louder than stock and with the gearbox in sport it makes all the right noises and not a hint of drone with the valves open or closed. If you want to stay friends with your neighbours this is the system to have.

^^^^^^ Are you organising this Ash, or is it an another Forums meet ?

Thanks for the Heads Up on this guys, just purchased this one for £69.95 and noticed its now back up to £94.99, got it just in time. Placed on March 15, 2018 CTEK CT5 Start/Stop 40-106 Smart Battery Charger - white/black Sold by: Amazon EU S.a.r.L. £69.95
