    New Bora 4Mo owner (finallllly)

    howdy Mk4 brethren!

    After many months of drooling and waiting for the wifey to agree to a second car, i have laid my stinky paws on a great Bora V6 4mo in black. Very happy. Stock as a rock. I take delivery of her tomorrow and took her for the world's longest test drive today. Stoked.

    Having the Mk5 TDI as my daily, I'm sure you Bora owners will agree that they are great cars. I don't know if its the build or the chassis or simply the tyres he had on but the tyre roar is VERY noticably quiet in the Bora by comparison to the Conti Sports 2 i have on the Golf. In fact, there's perhaps a little too much sound deadening at the firewall as i wanted to hear the VR6 come to life....

    here's the carsales ad, and as you can see i got her for a song!! She's already had the big 100,000km service done too.

    Incidentally, i have the AVC9000 fitted to the TDI and wondered if anyone has fitted the AVC equivalent double-DIN unit to their Mk4's? Or is there a better unit?

    Well, I am stoked as can be, so time for a dancing 'nana i say!!!

    Good price, we nearly bought one 3 years ago and sometimes regret it, but a complementary car to the TDI for sure.

    Mods time Mik?

    I might grab another S/S. Reckon the VTDA would be better on the Bora?
