  1. Looks great! Loving the matching setup! Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk
  2. Just for a change- wsnt a huge fan of the other caps but didnt want them to get painted with the wheels either... may change back at some point if i feel like it
  3. Depends on how hipster you are. The small cup holder also takes a take-away espresso sized cup (macchiato, picolo latte etc). The door cup holders are also very good. I have used them for takeaway coffee cups without issue (I spend a lot of time on the road, hence all the coffee-related size comparisons)
  4. Just a note - if you're after that extra couple of mm of load height and length, you can actually remove the seat cushion all together pretty easily by undoing the metal clip. Helped me out with a couple of long boxes.
  5. Quick update. Got my Clubber rims painted gloss black and got my mirror caps and grille wrapped to match - with just a hint of colour to go with it :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. If you are facing up an incline when you come to a stop, the brakes will engage to prevent rollback. If you take your foot off the brake, hill hold will hold the car for a few sessions before crawling like a regular auto. It can be a little jerky if you don't realise what is happening and just mash the accelerator pedal - same as city stop. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. I'm inclined to agree with you there - although to be fair it IS a cheap car so i guess they had to save money somewhere. That being said, my parents' Polo, which should be the "premium" offering over the Skoda, doesnt have the colour display. Can't say it has really bothered me.
  8. Update - spoke to a local roof rack company and gave them the car for a day for test fits in return for a set of racks. I think it turned out pretty well :-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  9. Yeah noticed that about the variable floor when I saw the mounting point. We don't get it in Aus though. Rubber lining was a ripoff here - AUD180 - so I bought some rubber matting from the hardware store and trimmed it to fit including a notch for the under floor/spare wheel Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. That's what I'm led to believe but I haven't seen any tunes actually come out yet - I guess we will have to wait and see Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. More along the lines of how much the warranty would be affected vs the actual power gain. Ie if the car is making more power but is still within engineering limits, would the gearbox still be covered. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  12. Picked up the car and dealer handover was great. Went through all the features, set up my phone and ditched the dealer sticker for me ;-) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  13. ABT have a secondary ECU tune they tell me will work on the new 1.2 TSI. Quoting 100kw and 225nm. Price is a bit high though. I'm also told APR will be out with a tune by December with similar figures. Still tossing up over whether to do it or not - don't want to lose my warranty unnecessarily Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  14. Absolutely loving my 110 TSI. The engine is smooth and torquey - runs out of puff a little at the top end but but overall a really sweet engine for mine. It's a little louder than my dads polo due to less sound deadening which means I get a little turbo whistle through sometimes which is nice. Overall I think it's a great match for the 7speed dsg - especially in the twisties. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
