    Car vertical's data is out of date! Do not use them stick to HPI, comes with a £30k guarantee. My car was registered cat N in August 2023, I bought it in November 2023 after doing a Car Vertical check which showed it as all clear, and found now found out by accident that it was cat N in March 2024. Stick to normal HPI!!!

    @lint8391 6 дней назад

    I think a BMW 330D - as mentioned in the intro - would be a better car than the Golf GTi.
    It's also one of those where there is no single best. It's a case of picking whichever compromise is best for you.
    As well as the exact condition of the car and the exact price being major factors too...

    @TomMountainbiker1994 22 дня назад +1

    Nice car :) 300bhp from a flash map on a GTi is abit optimistic though. 290 or so on a proper dyno map yeah but a flash map, he'd be looking at 260-270

    • @VerneyFTW
      @VerneyFTW 18 дней назад

      Most stage 1 dynoed gti are normally around 315bhp, going of rtech, mrc ect. The flash tune came from a car running less mods like the turbo elbow and stock exhaust and believe it to be 316bhp so would be shocked to be under 300bhp. But thanks mate miss it! Hopefully win it back Sunday 🤞
