    You can literally see the gauge move when on sport mode or flappy paddle playtime . Has got major pull, surprises a lot of people that's for sure.

    Have you considered an engine swap with the MK1, just leave the V8 engine cover in your wife's car. This way you can have a nice burble and your wifes car looks stock standard. Sounds to me like a win-win situation

    i like the idea only problem being is the v8 would weigh more than the mk1 me thinks.

    9 litres of oil you say, holy flood gates.

    that's really one of the most satisfying things they can say, especially when they are trained to notice the subtle differences.

    9 litres beats my 7.8 litres in the multivan.
