Those who have a Clubsport, do you have DCC?
No, and the ride is more than acceptable on 19” wheel.

Arrived today, first impressions are really good. Lovely inside. Sounds great

Silver paint and standard wheels aren’t really my first choice but it’ll do!

Hi, a German supplier on eBay.
Found it I think - £34. Any specific tactics used when fitting it?

My Mk8 R 20 Years will be released in 2 weeks time.

Any reason I shouldn't proceed with the purchase?

The Mk8.5 R is due soon, but if you're getting a good deal that accounts for this then go for it.

I wouldn't proceed. Facelift is now out for the GTI/ Clubsport and the R facelift is due to be unveiled very soon. Nobody will want the pre facelift in the future and I think people are under the impression the ‘20 years’ is going to hold value or be sort after - it won’t be.

Unless you got a criminal discount and you don’t mind loosing a st load of money…

It’s the best part of £10k at £45500 for a pre registered car. I’d expect a similar spec 8.5 to be the best part of £60k…
