thanks and congrats!
Thanks Carto4. The gearbox feels real nice now, it's loosened up after the first 1k miles, has a reasonably sharp short throw and goes in with ease every time; has a satisfying feel to it when it's in!!

The engine is sorting else, compared to something like an A3 170 Quattro diesel it's in a different league. I think I've mentioned elsewhere that I back to back test drove a 120d F20 and a coupe (old vs new gen engine) and the cars are night and day. The F20 Feels more responsive, lighter and agile; so yeah really pleased with this one!!
