You can see both front and rear wheels being powered in mine and Adio's videos

ok mate, but like i said it self adjusts, there could be hardly any torque going through rear wheels, i said it COULD send all drive to front in some situation eg snow depending on fwd grip, im sure at some points its sending some rwd, but who knows how much

I don't think an Audi TT is very cool anymore, they were more a car of the moment for me.

People in them nowadays you deffo think its because they can't afford the new ones, lets face it, you'd buy the new one given the choice, the only thing that stops people is the money.

Mk2 Golf Rallye would be better

no to mk2 golf rallye either. i dont want a car over 10 years old anyway. if it was a weekend car then i would but it's got to be a reliable daily aswell as something to thrash at the weekend down the lanes.

other than the fact i don't really like bmw's (except z4), the insurance is 300 quid more expensive on top of my 7.5k budget.

ffs, I know you don't want one but buy my LCR. Just get the wheels refurbed and the drivers door ding sorted and it'll look as nice as thegsi's old one.

I just had a new EGT sensor fitted and it now flies like it used to

Then I can save up and buy my next car.

your such a prize twat john

hows your glass, still half full mr negative ?

[Edited on 20-10-2011 by jr]

Everyone so far who has owned one says its good in the snow.

Not sure how being negative is related to you talking rubbish

any expirence of using them in the snow ? no thought not, i have thankfully, and dont think they deserve the reputation the miricle "quattro" system deserves

in the last big snowfall i found a deisel MK7 fiesta on eco thinn tyres to be more capable

Tyres make a massive difference.

A FWD with winter tyres will be better than a 4wd with summer ones.

but if they all had winter tyres the 4wd (even haldex) would be better.

tbh, 95% of people on the internet just repeat the sentences they want to hear.

Thats why so many products are highly rated now, who is going to pay £500 for coilovers, fit them, and they say they aren't very good.

Yeah!

Some guy said I would need "luck" because I bought Mintex pads and not the expensive DS2500 ones he sells.

I'm sure I'll be fine on the Mintex ones I'm fitting next.
