After 3 years of running a Mk1 ( great car ) I decided it was time to get something newer. I found this for sale at Meadens and did a deal : (only pics I have currently) :

2008 VRS TFSI, 1 owner, 35K miles, 18's, xenons, maxidot etc

Had generally positive comments about the colour and as far as I am aware this is the only MK2 in Sprint yellow on the Isle of Wight.

Love that Colour but I'm saving for a new Green one

There`s one in Gosport mate,lol. How are you finding it.

Auric - That new green is awesome.

Jaben - Im guessing yours is yellow?

Looks cool and welcome. Any plans to modify?

Thanks. Cant afford any Mods at the moment, although a revo remap would be nice at some point. Either that or a SMF conversion. I had the G60/ VR6 set up on my MK1 and it was much nicer than the DMF setup on the new car. Not sure if a SMF conversion exists for the tfsi??

I traded my mk1 octy vrs in for a mk2 vrs 18 months ago,as nice as the mk1 was my mk2 is so much better,yellow is not for me though but hope you enjoy your new car!

Thanks, I originally wanted a race blue one like yours but after seeing Sprint yellow changed my mind. Have you had any problems with yours? How do you find the clutch feel compared to the MK1?

Only problem i have had with mine was on going problem with the boot not opening,took 4 trips to the dealer to fix it(was under warranty) clutch feels fine,no issues with it,the brakes felt better on my mk1 though.

Auric - That new green is awesome. Jaben - Im guessing yours is yellow?

Yes mine is sprint yellow, bugger to keep clean though. All round is a nice car though.

Auric - That new green is awesome.

Indeed it is... saw a VRs hatch in green in Chesterfield the other day and then again at Gordon Lambs showroom. Looked great but does stick out like a sore thumb so there'd be no stealth speeding...

Very tidy!

Very nice,I love yellow was always my fav colour in general, any pics of the rear ?

I did the same, had my mk1 vRS for 8 years and loved it, so 18 months ago I went for the new vRS.

Love it, much nicer car inside and now the clip has been fitted to stop the wastegate actuator rattling its perfect!

Also went for the estate this time, as the one thing that did bug me was the water seeping in every time you open the boot, don't have that problem now and to be honest, love the shape of the estate, and the boot is huge!!

No pics of the rear yet. Already absolutely filthy so need to clean it again before taking more pics

Very nice.

Meadens are a great dealer.
