These things will hold good money due to the lack of them compared to the washout of R's I feel

So do I, never use it.
I may be totally wrong here as I've never checked, but is there not a way you can turn ACC off in the menu and just use normal Cruise ControlI wish they'd built normal cruise in too
As I say I could be making that up but thought I read it somewhere
**Edit: Sorry guys think I made that up
Amazed at you guys not using ACC, I think it's wonderful

It's funny how few mk7 GTI's are on the road compared to R & GTD. I actually think the GTI is the best looking Golf.View attachment 137724Plus, I have yet to see another Mk7 GTI on the roads so far since I collected it

ACC is amazing with the vw system being one if the best I have tried out of them allI may be totally wrong here as I've never checked, but is there not a way you can turn ACC off in the menu and just use normal Cruise Control

Stunning car, how do you find it on juice? Wifes getting a bit bored of her Tiguan R Line and had considered a dsg PP mk7 GTI as a replacement, unfortunately the R doesn't interest her lol

Was that with plenty of horsing/tuning?
Stage 1 on mine and standard on the manual. Mine actually was easier on fuel with revo stage 1 than standard but not by much. Both those figures are taking it really handy.

I get around low 30s generally but I haven't done any real long journeys on it yet. I was touching around 38-39mpg on ~25mile non-motorway/dual carriageway journey last week though. From what ive seen so far at least, if I drive like a granda its very easy on fuel but once my right foot gets heavy it drops down pretty quickly.

Problem i find with the DSG or any GTI is they are very hard to drive slowly.

Lol, most I got was 40.4 and it was the most painful run home from Portrush ever
Is that all?!
I regularly get 300-350 miles per tank in my R, I'm pretty Impressed with that actually, my GTD was 400-450 at best, although I do think the fuel tank is 5 litres larger in the RIs that all?!
