That looks really smart :thumbs up:
 
Nice I've had my 1.5T S line Sportback (in Mythos Black) for 6 months now, been really happy with it. Fuel economy on a decent run is great and very nice to drive. What options you got on there (I can see the wheels and pan roof) and is it Manual or Auto?

looks a nice drop in height. What springs is your car now on please?
 
Looks good mate how do u find the performance?? I have a 1.5 150 but coming from my 1.4 125 I don’t know if it’s just me but my 1.4 feet faster,also on the 1.5 going from comfort to sport mode there ain’t much difference
 
I'm still a little worried about 40mm I have the springs to be fitted the car from floor to top of arch is 27 inches , 40mm = 1.5/6 inch drop hope I can still get over humps with out front bumper being crunched or arch rub from tyres

I want the height of yours really Paul.

well this is a company car and had an A6 balackedition prior to this with an A3 150BHP derv as an interim

comapred to the derv version this car feels as quick and much more refined - great to be back in petrol

for UK roads i feel the 1.5 is plenty nippy enough

my wife had an M135i for shits and giggle and bascially too quick for our roads unless you like fines etc - chopped that in for the TT black edition

I get ya, mine does feel quick, I think the 1.4 felt quicker or sounded quicker lower down the Rev range.
