Hello people

im gareth from plymouth im 21 and currently drive a lexus.


My car history is mainly jap 2x mitsi colts, lexus and a 106.

Im looking for a new small car and like to be diffrent hint why im looking at a ds3. Did go to local dealer today to find out about the r but have been informed these no hood they all sold. On friday im going to test drive a 120bhp mid range but may take the 150 sport out instead as didnt realice they did on

Also looking at mini cooper s, mitsi vcolt turbo and punto evo abarth.

Welcome !

150 THP All The Way !

Cooper S - Are Everywhere...

Not Sure About The Colt Turbo As I Dunno Anyone With One ( Must Be A Reason :L )

And My Mate This Weekend Chose The THP Over The Punto Arbarth After Test Driving Both - He Said For The Same Price It Was An Easy Desicion lol

Wahey - another Gareth!

If you go for the THP there will be 3 THP-owning Gareths on here!!

I agree with Zack on the competition. Mini Cooper S's are everywhere, and imo are now looking very dated. The Colt is now an old model, and the turbo is an unruly beast (and its very plasticky inside). Ditto the Punto Abarth - not helped by the recent awful facelift.

I tried the 120 before settling on the THP. Chalk & cheese. No contest!

Mini cooper s abrath evo and ds3 where all in my mined looked at the mini and just didn't like the style what so ever fast yes but that's coz it costs you your soul to buy loved the funkyness of the abarth evo pretty nice interior and
The normal/sports switch but the insurance was crazy then I saw the ds3 Lots of choice like the mini but not at a crazy price slick interior and pretty nippy loved the thp I test drove I bought the same car lol coz I could wait to own it love the fact everyone loves it

hiya and welcome to ds3 club

Hi Gareth and welcome along to the club. As for the remaps, contact Dave at flash remapping (07886 368795) Dave uses remaps programmed by Viezu. Quite a few of the guys on here have had the remaps done including myself and are impressed. Realistically you are looking at a 30bhp gain and an increase in torque too.
