How's this for a 0-60 time on my GTI 180? Apologies for the s****y cam work, it was hard to hold an iPhone and record whilst trying to do a decent time.

6 and a bit seconds.

Compare it to my standard 138 time.

Your 138 is abnormally quick... I've raced them before and they don't even come close :S

It had an engine rebuild at 82,000 miles Wink
(To OEM specs, I've driven 3 other 206 GTi's since my old one & they all seem a bit sluggish)

Should be able to beat the 138 by more than that.

How much did that cost you to get rebuilt? (and where), if it makes that much of a difference I might be interested lol

Free Cool

Timing belt failed under warranty.
Rebuilt by AM Autotech Durrington.

Note that I no longer went to that garage afterwards as they weren't very happy about it.
