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

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 mate, thought I recognised the name from club polo. I've done the same as you, R32 for a sensibleish car and my G40 to fiddle with

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!
