4 years and fond memories of a DS3 THP 155, needed something faster :-)

^ Will prob wait for warranty to expire tbh.
Was going very fast today, and it still wanted to accelerate, so don't see the point of a map atm

Do I want 370-400 bhp? I'm getting old LOL. 300bhp is pretty darned good.

Only just caught up on this. Top shout for a new car Chris!

It's excellent Chris not just darned good ! Maybe when the warranty has expired you'll be looking for a bit more excitement but I suspect it will take a good while to wear off with the standard bhp

Nice one Chris, congrats.

That's a bit like somebody saying "I'm happy being bald, no way would I want a full head of flowing blonde locks for less money than a good night on the piss".
Just saying ha ha ha ha

Needs modifying. Have you gone DSG? You should also invest in VW racing springs.

[Chris_Blue]

Thanks for the kind words- no DSG, as wanted to retain full control
there are a few little problems with shift changes and rev levels with the DSG

Fastest car Ive ever driven, and driven a few
Like sitting in a rocket
Yeeeeha

[lfcrule1972]

I wouldn't want the DSG either Chris, seems like you have a cracker there, I have to ask though, I'm assuming it doesn't have leather seats ???

[Chris_Blue]

^ No. Well, part leather in the cabin, but the seats are not all leather.

You know me and leather (Squeaky bum/cold) seats LOL.

I just love the "R" Logo emblazoned across the top of the shoulder part of the seat :-)

[lfcrule1972]

I did wonder if it came as standard with the R models I'm glad you won't have to put up with a "squeaky bum/cold seat" - although I'd venture that with 300 bhp your seat is always going to be quite warm

I'd always go DSG, sooooo much better

Well, when you can afford to get one, you can go DSG, cant you Oli....
Is your Fiesta an auto?

I'd like a house first. My fiesta isn't auto because there isn't the option of that on the ST, however, if there was a DSG option for it I would've gone for it. I'd also put the upgraded wheels on it.

dsg = Lazy people

[Chris_Blue]

Seats are so much more comfortable in a DS3 THP :-)
