Nice low miles too, enjoy it :thumbsup:
Cheers mate.

Yeah the colour is a definite stunner to me :)

The engine bay is certainly more exciting than the TTS bays you mentioned :o

Very nice indeed I would loved that engine in ours! Like someone else has said it's a better car 90% of the time.
It's a shame but our TT balck edition with the amplified pack (looks like an RS even if it doesn't go like one) will be going soon :cry: but we need a bigger car luckily they have just brought out a black addition q3 Mrs Monkey won't get the RS of that either! We are swapping the TT for the same specification q3
My little blue zed is in lots of bits. With lots of things started and not many finished! I may have found the limits of my time and ability!!

I'm sure this engine has cleaned up a series amount of awards over the years too, very impressive power plant.

It will be going in for full paintwork correction plus a ceramic coating early next year, then I can just clean it and add superficial layers of wax :rofl:

Cheers matey :thumbsup:

Marks a good friend of mine and a fellow detailing junkie.

He's spoken of you before as you do some tracktime at Curborough if I remember correctly which is his home from home :lol:

He's trying to convince me to take the 'faux by four' there for a lap or two, it'd be like driving miss daisy :driving: :rofl:

Not been all plain sailing with the car, a TPMS fault has re-appeared that needs investigating and it's THIRSTY.

The torque is available for virtually 1400 rpm all the way up to 5500. It's mad.

It sounds aggressive too. Get's heads turning :driving:

Also the OEM exhaust is spot on, really impressive with the valves open in sports mode.

Also added a set of pressed plates tonight :

He is a nice guy a true gent.

Well I hope it was complmentry!!! Probably moaning about the state of my car!!

You should bring it along. It dose not matter how fast or slow you are. As long as you have fun. Its nice to be able to strech your cars legs. And without endagering anonelse or worrying about speeding tickets.
