    This is the best bet and closest to Jetta GLI which will never be sold here.

    Well done your channel is churning out more quality contents! Always looking forward. How much did the owner bid his plate number for? Naiseeee.

      I didn't bid. It came with the registration.

    Any idea to share how to remove the vibration noise from the Cash Card IU unit caused by the front wind screen?

    is the gearbox DQ381 or DQ500; as mentioned earlier?

      It is a DQ381, used on the S3, and Golf R.

    This car is the epitome of performance affordability here in India and retails at about 4.6M INR ~83.2k SGD! How's the overall car pricing in SG? I've heard taxes are mighty high. Any good roads without speed cams to belt out it's performance?

    • @CarLifeSG
      @CarLifeSG  3 года назад +1

      Wow that’s still quite a sum even in India. It’s about $141k SGD here. Yes car taxes here are stupidly high. No good roads and u can forget about maxing the car out as long as you’re within SG’s borders

    Boy you have yet to try a performance Ford vehicle i.e Focus ST and Focus RS, both of which eats that pseudo GTi for breakfast, lunch, dinner and midnight snack.

    how is the insulation vs Volkswagen and audi?
    please share

    • @adrianng9997
      @adrianng9997 4 года назад

      Its a VW with skoda branding. Hence its VW standard if you ask me. Audi is in its own class no need to compare. My regular audio guy tells me this stock skoda has better door insulation compared to VW though. But it looked the same to me, maybe coz i compared a Mexican made jetta to this.

    • @silenthunt
      @silenthunt 4 года назад

      It's comparable to a VW Golf or Jetta. My guess is that same materials and sound proofing technique used.

      Untested and unproven on this car. Can try asking audi S3 owners with the same gearbox setup.

    It’s a Skoda, never a VW. Similar to VW, it’s never a Audi. The same goes to Audi/Porsche.

    • @silenthunt
      @silenthunt 4 года назад

      Yes it's A Skoda. It was never trying to be a VW. However with its parts, engine and transmission coming from VW and Audi and with a host of workshops in SG specialized in VAG cars... No need to fear getting it and then no support...

      you are right lah its not lah. bro in the video i think high or sumting think his skoda is lembughini. But say one fair thing, if you take out the engine cover and see insai the parts all got OOOO and VW logo.

      U sure?
      It’s 40k cheaper than the GTI, more powerful and more practical.
      For the price of a GTI I can get an RS245 and a 7 year old Jetta.

      Judging from the mod list and base car price, he has probably spent enough to buy a gti. But now he has something faster and more spacious than the gti

      Hahaha, didn't spend enough to buy a GTI. If I did get a GTI, I would mod it all the same, then you would ask if I could buy an R.
