Tip: wait until 6750rpm to do the gearchange, don't lift off the throttle! It should bounce once, off the 7000rpm rev limiter.

Jebus  8O   8O   8O  i dont think ive ever taken it past the red line!

other new VWs have the logo on the headlamp bulb reflector too, at least I noticed it on a load of polos at the stealers yesterday  

Isn't going near the red line dangerous??

I never really taken mine past 4000 lol and i can beat most people off the mark..

LOL - ROTFLMAO…

Dangerous? Heck no! Thats what the limiter is there for - to stop you from over revving (Though yours may not have one - check the rotor arm!)

My 8V pulls hard up to and past the red line.
16v's don't come to life until 4500 to 5000 RPM! (Red lined at 7500!)

Wouldn't minf getting a copy of this mag on back order - what month/year was Mag?
