      Smile Newbie Post

      I've been lurking on the forum for a while now, but have finally registered after buying my first R a couple of weeks ago. Im planning on keeping the car fairly standard as i've got a polo g40 thats my modified dub toy

      Picture taken after first test drive

      Might do a few simple mods and maybe a remap to remove the flat spot i've got but that will be about all. The golf is supposed to be my sensible car. I must admit i liked the look of the turbo conversions @ inters at the weekend though!

      Welcome to the forum guys.

      Pettsy, nice looking motor there, and a nice plate too... did that come with the car?

      Hmm, mods... we all say we won't, but eventually we will, especially after talking to people on here!
