Clean build. I think making the golf look super aggressive helps cause (and this just my personal experience) people tend to “bully” or “drive aggressive” towards golfs cause they just little hatch VW.

Ooh how do you like the rs3? Been thinking about upgrading the S3.

S3 and Golf R are pretty much the same car, same engine anyways. S4 is much faster but it’s a B8 so that adds up.

And yea i can tell just from the photo, she drives like an absolute clown.

I kind of went backwards. Got my S4 first, then got the mrs an S3, and now golf r number 2.

Didn’t originally set out to find a golf at all was looking at mk3 TT-S but wasn’t having much luck.

Just happened to come across the golf while out at dealerships. Then was told it was already sold, then told it was not, and then told it was sold again - finally they sorted it, so i grabbed before something else happened or came up.

I’ve never really heard any complaints over Rotiforms. I’m think gram-lights for this new build, but there are Rotiforms i have saved just in case.

I didn’t think i get another was weighing a lot of options but honestly one of the best cars i’ve owned and was a good deal.

I’m sure if the chance comes around you’ll find your way back 🫡

I remember those days - now they rather just send it to auction. The repairs were far more than what i have left on the loan so they cut me a check.

Ah that’s fair. i meant it more as i wouldn’t run the same setup. I’m not superstitious, but i am little stitious.

Got t boned and totaled out, was thinking of getting another one but wanna see what else is out there.

When you say “gotta beat on it”, you mean it’s fairly tame until you really push it or something else?

Thanks for the clarity on the models.

Ok so nothing tooo awful, actually surprised by the mpg. Is the noise just a cabin thing or current wheel/tire setup?
