Thanks Joel. :thumbup:

Do you think that parking sensors/EPS etc are also essential? These are not standard on the comfort. Im trying to size up of these accessories are worth installing.

I'd go for Remap and some sort of handling mod, either rear ARB or Coilovers. I wouldn't bother with exhaust myself. Or only after sorting handling out. JMHO

What exactly is an vRS Comfort?

Parking sensors are a must for me, especially after owning a clio. Cruise control is also a defo, although Krusie Kontrol (do a search) can be fitted afterwards.

I wouldn't bother with exhaust myself.

I only change the exhaust for a performanace jobbie when the original one has fallen off. As the OEM one can often cost more than a stainless steal one.

Yes, that is when i will change mine too. It would seem a waste of money to ditch a brand new exhaust rather than have a remap imo. And you can alway have the map tweaked later if need be.

I think the "comfort" is the level of standard extras, like Ambience or Classic etc.

:confused: thought the vRS was simply known as the vRS...

Yes, but i guess you can order a "package" of extras up to a certain level. Just a guess though as i got mine used.

Not in England as of Feb. It was just the vRS + extras (and there were few of those - Xenons, sunroof, parking sensors, cruise IIRC)

Well i did say i was guessing :D

yes parking senors if hasnt got them put them on, its worth it saved the back fo my car a few times already

Joel

I would recommend 17" alloys, climate control or sunroof.

Xenons are expensive (not worth it imho)

Rain sensing wipers are a good option, but still dont think they work as well as on my old Pug 306.

I upgraded my stereo (standard blaupunkt was crap).

yes, what is a vRS Comfort :confused:

(also parking sensors are for those who over- (or under-) estimate the size of their wagon!!)

Did not have that as an option when i bought mine either (04 plate) maybea its changed to offer cloth seats as an option over the leather ones !!!!?????
