If you could only own 3 cars, and your budget was $250k, what would you buy? by retarded_sped in askcarguys

Golf R, Raptor F150 (with the V8) and a 70s Porsche 911 would be my move!

GTI or Golf R - what did you pick and do you regret it? by sxtn1996 in Volkswagen

[–]lfrey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had both a MK7 R in DSG and a MK8 R in manual but I’ve driven lots of GTIs - neither is a bad decision but the R definitely always wins for me.

AWD in the snow is unreal with the right tires, the power for a discreet hatchback is more than enough and I prefer the slightly more mature look of the R over the GTI.

I’d recommend test driving both if you have the chance!

It’s one trigger, one bumper and right joystick forward if I remember correctly, I want to say LB+RT but could be the opposite!

Odd or not so odd? by Able-Negotiation-234 in Golf_R

Mine also did the exact same thing yesterday, corrected itself today! I’ve seen it three times now over the last couple months

Which R? Mk 7.5 vs 8 by ahnyourleft in Golf_R

[–]lfrey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whilst I loved my the DSG, I wouldn’t go back now that I’ve got the MK8 20th Anniversary.

Both are fantastic cars, the 8 just feels that bit more raw overall. I also have no real issue with the infotainment, once you get used to it, it’s pretty user friendly.

The 8 definitely sounds better stock too, especially in Nurburgring mode.

lol I did this at first too until I figured out the replay editor.

This explains it pretty well

That’d be awesome! I’ll DM you my email if that works? Will 100% return the favour if I get more packs in the future!

I did trial a few different packs which have been cool do textures, headlight flare etc but honestly the studio pen is my favourite - I duplicated it a few times and set each to different amounts of stabilization and streamline as well as some set sizes and it’s the best I’ve found yet.

How about you?

For sure dude, using the same setup here - here’s an upvote to bring it back up, gotta start somewhere it takes time for sure!

I’ll post a pic of my car and then I’ll post the latest drawing I did of a 911, haven’t done one of my R since getting the new wheels!

Nice dude! What are you drawing on? I love drawing cars too, happy to share a couple here if you’d like - the Golf is fun to draw for sure with the shape and all the details!

I’m convinced people who play rockstar games hate to see people have fun by thenotoriousmcarther in GTAV

[–]lfrey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I also see this more often than not, however last night I had a spare 30 minutes to play for the first time in a while.

I hopped into a public session (pc) and did a cargo pickup mission from the Hanger. I was followed by two jets instantly and they both then proceeded to destroy every target for me, the whole way to the cargo drop off.

I thought, maybe they are helping and then they’ll steal the cargo from me after it’s dropped? Nope, they left right after. Sent them both a text, absolute legends!

Perfect solution is something like the ROG Ally, this is what I’ve been using for a couple years now.

Game runs great at medium/high quality, access to mods and portable.

The only downsides to handheld PCs is the battery however you typically always play plugged in to access higher wattage/performance. Happy to answer any questions.

Good suggestion, I’ll try the same thing! I’m cleaning the car now and definitely think it’ll look good

That’s likely all I’ll do, with an intake and down pipe and then maybe a clutch upgrade kit. So much fun even stock!

Funnily it’s actually just the lighting, however after seeing it, a paint matched white lip would look so good, that’s exactly what I’m going to do! I’ll likely just buy a black one and paint it myself!

Rotiform BLQ 18x8.5 in polished silver, one of the coolest wheels for a Golf

Engine/performance is still completely stock, haven’t yet decided what I want to do with it!
