How often are you using the gear box in auto sport mate? Every time you're in sport+? Just curious I hardly use mine as the rev range is a little to much for our little roads. What do you think?
Hey, new sub here. I have a mk5 gti dsg, and I'm always thinking m140i vs golf r, in a few years I'm hoping to be able to upgrade. The m140i is soo tempting the golf r seems generally bit boring, but I think I just absolutely love my mk5, for £3500c its stage 1 light weight and 270 ish bhp, it pulls strong and with its few suspension mods it handles amazing Don't know if I'd want to sell it, 2 years ownership still puts a smile on my face eveytime, or do I upgrade but 3-4x the price would a m140i/golf r really be 3-4x the car for the money!
Picked my M140i up yesterday (29/07/2022) after driving a Focus 1.0T for 5 years. Unbelievable car.

Hi mate, i literally only ever used it in sport gearbox when i was in "mexico" roll racing
Good video cheers matey
Anytime! Appreciate the support!
I’m looking at getting one of these, I currently own a focus rs mk2 running 430bhp. I only get most 25mpg lol
Was definitely looking to buy. Fuel prices put me off. What’s the tank capacity?
I believe around 45 litres

Don’t bother with the golf r, they are incredibly boring, good car terrible hot hatch
Xhp sorts that
Stage 3 xHP is a game changer
Agreed.
Forget the wheels. Diff, xhp, tune in that order 👌🏽
I think sports cat, stage 2 and xhp followed by a diff will be the way I go in the following months!
