Correct me if I'm wrong, but the belt is supposed to be changed at 105k.Quote:

Nice post SF.
Sums up my attitude to it as well, except I went crazy with old Landrovers and side valve Morries.
Best car I ever owned was one that caused me the most grief with repairs.
Oh and I sold my GTI to get the R and would never go back.
Damn the expense (not that I give a toss or even notice it)
My different shades of white R (post repair) makes me smile every time I hit the go pedal in the rain.
Wife agrees (added bonus)
Yesterday when I was at VW Day of drags in Sydney I watched a few guys dragging R32's and R's doing sub 13's over the quarter mile. I thought to myself what have a I gone and done getting an R for my wife and I. Then i thought well not as if I'm going to be driving it flat out but will be nice to have the response if I need it.
I do have a question though, is there any treatment I should do to the leather seats?
That was our boys.. we surprised a few :)
they did well
Nice to see all those Rs in one spot
Best time from the R brigade was 12.54 at 106 MPH ( 170 clicks) down the quarter.. on ya Parso

I wonder how many mods were dont to achieve that time. I wonder what a standard R would do it in?
