RS 169 or 245 any opinions?

[Ozsko]

Finding it hard to get a good deal at the moment. I've got a Green RS169 fully optioned @ $48k. Or a Red fully optioned RS245 @ $49,967, they just don't want to budge on price, maybe I'll just need to wait it out for a while. What do you guys reckon about those two deals?

Try a broker, always worth a go.

Replaced it with a 15" resonator see video for before and after

Ozsko - I may try a broker, I hadn't thought of that!! Anyone you could recommend?

pittster - That sounds really nice, I'll have to do that with mine. How much did it cost to do, if you don't mind me asking?

[pittster]

Only $180 installed including resonator 15" 2.5" in and out stainless.

Good cheap way to get some sound but not alot of sound.

Picked and purchased!!!!

Just did a good deal on a Rallye Green RS169, fully optioned. They're sending through the paper work now!! The car is coming from Orange NSW, price was delivered to me, so pretty happy.
I'm I disappointed that I didn't get the 245?? There is a little bit of remorse, but it was $3K more and had a couple of thousand kms on it. The money I saved will go into a Superskoda order and the resonator mod, I may do PPF as well, our last car copped a lot of little scratched and scraps from my grotty kids, So may look at doing the front, bonnet and doors.

With a little luck, may have it by the weekend!!!

Nice one mate, If your not modding it much, you'll never know it doesn't have the LSD. You can turn the XDL to a higher setting with a VCDS/OBDeleven, it just uses the brakes more to help rotate the car.

+1 for PPF mate, I spent over $2500 on: Front bumper, Head Lights, Fog Lights, Full Bonnet, Full Front Guards, Door Cups, Door Handles (just the out facing surface), B & C pillars (Black parts), Side Skirts, Bottom of doors, Door Edges, Mirrors backs, Top of windscreen/roof, A pillars.

Congrats you will love it. I couldn’t justify the additional 5k for the green on the deal we got but I wish we did grab the green. It’s a awesome colour.

Have fun

Really looking forward to it. I've had a bit more time to think about it and I'm not going to be tracking this, it's a family car first and my wife if going to be driving it 60% of the time. So the LSD and extra power aren't high on the list of priorities. Besides the Green looks pretty sweet!

[pittster]

yeah I am in the same boat family transporter that the missus drives, mods for ours are centre res, tint, OBD eleven tweaks, Golf GTE intake mods.

IMO its not a track car but capable of doing it

Well done!
As the kids say "we'll be twinsies!"
Green wagon. Fully optioned?
Yay!
