Not sure.... i know it would be an LE but I might want to wait for the MK2, just get in early enough to get an early car... lots of other options to look at as well though ...

hello guys,

following on from my JCW post in here a few weeks ago, I now think I will be going the whole hog, JCW engine, suspension and brakes not sure how i've got to this stage but it's just soooo tempting

However, I'm still not sure whether to get it all done at once when I go to JCG or space it out over a few months, gonna try getting a deal at JCG for the whole lot so this should help me decide

I had thought about just changing the brake pads to the JCW motorsport Mintex type but think the official JCW kit should be well balanced to the car and retain a little bit of value (I hope! )

I've not driven a car with this lot specced but I beleive a few of you have
