Got this a couple of months ago for Mrs Lyons as a replacement to the A6 to free up some £ for the house. It's a '13 facelift model with the 177hp engine and DSG gearbox. Quick enough and very comfortable.

The GT is well spec'd as standard: front and rear parking sensors, xenon lights, heated leather, electric seats, sat nav with dab and Bluetooth.













The only thing I've done is replace the RNS315 for a 510DAB, and the only other things planned are a Mk6 GTi steering wheel with paddles and maybe different wheels. The ride height is ridiculous, but I'm not going down the lowering route again.

Passed her in Dromara the other week in it, nice plate on it (y) Metro fonts an all IIRC :p

Nice looking cars these!

Also as you're the VAG RNS upgrade guru I'll be seeing you when I want to change the old one in the RS4 for the newer 2010+ one. It's all a sea of meaningless VAG acronyms and numbers to me so I need some guidance!

Our least favourite colour in them too! But condition, history and the fact we had the Audi sold forced our hand.

@gav525, hers aren't metros. Didn't want to draw any more attention to the plate!

Yes VAG sat navs are my specialty so give me a shout!

Ah yeah, maybe it was the spacing on the plate drew my attention to it come to think of it? Catchy plate though!

And I'll give you a shout when it comes to sorting out a newer RNS-E thing, cheers (y)

I do like those seats, are they comfortable, they look more so than s-line seats. 5 or 4 seat?

I think these a a great looking car. Would like to see one with the chrome trim changed to gloss black though. Inside looks like a very nice place to be (y)

The facelight model is a nice improvement over what went before, particularly the rear. Lovely classy looking big bus, no doubt it can shift well for its size!

Lovely motor @Lyons , that colour suits them.

Really love driving mum's GT, it's so smooth on the road. Do you find much difference in the adaptive suspension modes?

These are a great family car whilst still having a bit of style with the swooping roofline. Lovely drive too. Off topic but @Lyons do you know is Bluetooth a simple enough retrofit with that head unit? Car in question is actually a Tiguan, has mfsw as I believe that matters.
