Passat 170bhp sport

-Corkie-

Im thinking of getting the modified diesel passat with 170 bhp and lowered suspension. Are they faster than the normal one.

I was looking at one in gregory brady motors in lisburn. Anyone here know what he is like for aftersales etc..

Why change from a 3.0l A8 to a Passat?

Its for my wife i had o 07 normal one but was written of last saturday. A8 is getting a bit expensive too. Tax and running costs are colossol.

well an increase in horsepower is not going to make it slower than the normal one :rolleyes:. Lowered suspension, should improve handling in corners potentially making it faster on a track environment, but as your considering a diesel passat, I wouldnt think your too concerned with grip and g levels in the corners.....

I havent heard any horror stoies or any stories of anyone whos bout from him (I have family in Lisburn).

If you do trade in a decent car (albiet a diesel) for a remapped passat......
Please dont go on about it like its the best car ever on the forum as there are to many culchies (I love ppl form the country just not the disel VAG heads!) who do this and make themselves look like complete numpties!

IM not wasting my time replying to that id prefer if you would delete your post. If you think their is to much culchies you should look for a forum specific to inner city type people

lmao.

That told you stealthy.

What he means is that there are too many people in this country that think TDi's are the greatest and fastest thing ever.

Why is this in the modified cars section anyway. Isn't everything you are buying standard issue?

Considering its for your wife, isn't the important question, what colour is it and how big is the boot?

Am I right or am I right? eh?

It was just a small request with a please in front of it (really for you own dignity tbh!)

Other than a remap and lowering, does it have any other mods?

She had a 07 already but it was the 105 only. Your correct must be pearl black and have every extra. I want to know has anyone any experiences buying of the named dealer. You cant but these cars down here their as scarce as hens teeth.

You'd probably get better answers in the main motors forum than here tbh.

More likely get a better response on a specific dealer on the main motors forum. (or a Nothern Irish motoring forum)
