Not really worth me starting a build thread as I'm pretty tame when it comes to mods. So I'll just drop in this teaser pic for now...

Hey mate,

Really keen to know if you have driven the Golf R yet with the manual transmission?

Very keen to read your views espaecially comparing DSG with the Manual transmission.

Cheers....Chris

Sorry Chris, I got your message on VWW, just been slack in replying. I haven't had a chance to drive a manual R yet.

Having said that my S3 is manual and on balance I find it more fun to drive than I did the DSG equipped R I reviewed for AUSmotive.

There's no question, though, that I'd be buying a Golf R if I was in the market now. Probably this one that is currently at Gerald Slaven Volkswagen, haha...

Manual, MDI, xenons were the options I saw on my quick squiz.

Oz Ultraleggeras - looking fresh! You have a very spacious garage. ;)

Will you be on the roads this weekend? If I was looking I'd be over at Slaven's right now!

CBR report:
Floriade was pretty good, considering its subject.
Excellent views from our room. PM me if you're up for a drive. Otherwise I'll try to catch up tomorrow.
Lots of happy people in orange travelling back to Sydney this morning.

Mobile revenue raiser spotted north of Goulburn (probably too late; not sure what the leeway is at present above 110).

CP is Audi central! Dave's TTR of OPH fame, a black TT with tasty BBS RC, a black S3 on the street and probably more. :) Of course many were on the drive this arvo.
I am up for a twilight drive, Saad, if you can come over here (city centre, Casino signs, I am parked right outside).

Gotta love this weather.

'Berrans - what are your dinner recommendations?

I just finished detailing an R32 so no drive today!

Liam excellent choice in wheels, you have been talking about them for some time now, glad to see you pulled the trigger!
