    I got an APR stage 1 tune last December and it makes a big difference. Makes the S1 feel like it should have come from the factory. The Eventuri cold air intake and new turbo inlet also gave a fairly noticeable bump in power.

    Can't decide between Audi s1 and a f21 125d, I like big diesel torque and the zf8 gearbox but in the winter the s1 would be so much fun and for the driving that I do (only on mountains) the s1 would be much faster I think
    Beeing close to Germany I can find both of them quite cheap but can only afford one 😅

      They are good handling cars, just not on a par with superb handling hatches, because they are set up to be comfortable daily drivers.
      You can turn them into track day monsters with suspension, subframe mounts, and lower control arm mods, but then they are ruined as daily drivers.

      So I respect you for that.
      Your initial comment sounded like a 12 year old.
      I also agree with your second comment. They are not designed to be the ultimate track day car, but what they do best is being a comfortable daily driver which can be tuned to be a very quick car in a straight line, cheaply and easily.
      There are plenty of M140is which have had serious money spent on them, to make them into extremely good track day cars, but we both know, if you throw enough money at anything you can turn it into whatever you want, and plenty of owners videos prove even an M140i can be an amazing track-day car, but it needs a lot more than an underbody brace and some B14's to do that.

Ever since VAG acquired Lamborghini, they’ve been made with VAG parts & are now incredibly reliable compared to pre-VAG when they were famous for breaking down & being notoriously difficult to service & repair. The easiest way to pay the lowest price for parts, is to just put the parts number into Google & click on the “shopping” feature. VW is usually cheaper for parts than it’s other brands, but the internet is heaps cheaper again for factory parts which usually come from Lithuania, Poland, Czech Republic etc.
