GTIs always feel really tight so i wonder how yours feels? it feels pretty good considering its a 5door has a few issues at minute like the bottom engine mount is shagged and gear linkage is a little sloppy but it runs out of tax end of june so its coming off the road to be sorted... freshen up the engine and put my cams and fuel reg on

That's an awesome diablo mate but can you please use some punctuation and maybe consider a spell checker to make your posts readable.
What's the drivers seat as it doesn't look OEM?
