[paul26982]

[CosmicMatt]

Think you're from Ed38, are you not?

New car, nice motor. I want one, one day.

[Adz The Rat]

Matt yea Im on E38 also.

[CosmicMatt]

Yeah just saw your new sig mate, the car is looking fantastic.

What mpg is she averaging so far?

[Adz The Rat]

So far average is 26mpg I think, been behaving really though!
The noise is fantastic, dont think I will ever sell this car

[RadoVR6]

What type of exhaust is on it?

[Adz The Rat]

Not sure, think the back box is just a cheap Halfords job.
Will be changing it for a Magnex as soon as can afford

[CosmicMatt]

Just been admiring it again, the paint is lovely.

Mine has the magnex on it. Best exhaust for the vr6. Looks and sounds really nice.

What sort of mileage is on it? Which interior has it got?

[Adz The Rat]

128k mileage, full VAG service history from new and only 2 previous owners from new.
Interior is cloth trim in good condition, fancy a leather retrim in the future but wont be for a while.
What tail pipe have you on yours??
Fancy the Magnex oval but not sure if will suit it

Have you upgraded to Lupo wipers yet???
Mine are awful and read that they all are and the Lupo upgrade is worthwhile

Just did it a couple of weeks ago. Think it was about £80 odd for the kit online. They are better but mine were not too bad with the standard ones...just the passenger side was bad.

Whats with the carrier bag looking thing next to the header bottle and the exposed wires in the engine bay?

[Adz The Rat]

Haha the bag is covering something to keep it dry when the dealer washed the engine, will remove it this week.
Going to make a start shining it up under there.

Something? an alarm?

Good luck with the cleaning under the bonnet....been there done that.

[Adz The Rat]

Yea has an alarm on so possibly that.
Thought about polishing the rocker cover and inlet manifold, any tips??

Ive had a 16v manifold and rocker polished up before and they are a pain to keep clean. I have just kept the vr6 as was intended by vw and just gave it a good clean.

Watch out for the mountains of waxoil in the bay. Do not jet wash the bay unless you are going to buy new plugs and leads after. Just use plenty of gunk and then white spirit to get the excess waxoil off.

They come up a treat though.

[Mr Mot]

Nice motor : )
Chuck some BBS on it and dont put a magnex on - spend a little more on a milltek i beg you!

Carbonio also make a very nice sounding induction kit.
