Had this beast for 8yrs and what an epic machine. Replaced this with a Virtus GT and I must say it doesn't feel like a monster grunting under your seat.

I’ve a 1.5 tdi with stage 2 tune from ICD tuning. It rips and fast Af. The car build perse isn’t costly as you’ve stated but the maintenance goes above your head once the odo touches 1L kms. Still the best fun to drive proper hot hatch for ripping the city

@captainjacksparrow1 Год назад

maintenance like? approx expense for a pre owned car to make it run good?

@hariharasudhan907 Год назад

@@captainjacksparrow1 it depends on the condition of the car. The annual maintenance would be up to 15-17k. Once it crosses 60k in odo you’ve to mostly change suspension depending on the driving style and the road conditions and majority of the service depends on the city road conditions. Most of the spares from the dealers are priced obnoxiously high.

@@hariharasudhan907 would you recommend a polo 1.5/1.6 tdi or a laura 2.0 manual.

@hariharasudhan907 Год назад

If you’re in a city with narrow roads by all means go for Polo, if you’re in a big city with wide roads then Laura and at this time importing parts for Laura would be bit difficult I suppose as compared to polo. If you’re interested in 2.0 Tdi with bit more budget go for Passat.

@doczilla1023 Год назад

If you get to own a car like this, DONT TUNE IT RIGHTAWAY! There's a lot to play around with the car other than its engine. What I'd suggest doing is get all the electrical upgrades such as BCM, headunit, cluster, steering, electric side mirrors, parking sensors, rear camera. And other mechanical upgrades such as better 256mm brakes, suspension and finally a nice short shifter with ball bearing for that rubbery shifting you mentioned. Bring the car to current trend and then explore the car. After 2-3 years when you get bored with the stock power, go for the tune. This would be financially relieving and a chance to experience the car.

For stage 1 you just need an remap and an performance air filter, for stage 2 you need stage 2 ecu remap (tcu as well if have an automatic) an free flow exhaust, spark plugs, custom downpipe and upgraded brakes…. In stage 3 you need to have everything mentioned above with a stage 3 ecu,tcu remap, cold air intake,upgraded turbo ,blow off valves and probably coil-overs to improve handling
