This is a question Impulse buys

I'm now the owner of a monster trampoline that's nearly too big for the garden. Tell us your retail disasters and triumphs.

Leon
Nearly bought an FR but ended up with an ex-demo TDi 140 Sport 'cos I was offered a better part-exchange on my Ibiza TDi 130 (on impulse too - the kitchen units I'd just ordered and paid for wouldn't fit in the Ibiza). 52k miles later, the shiny black beastie is well on its way to being the most reliable car I've ever had - annual services, a set of wiper blades and two sets of tyres. Not quite as much fun as the Ibiza, but should be when I have it chipped once it's out of warranty (180hp and 395Nm for £595 - cheaper than upgrading to an FR) - of course, that could be tempting all sorts of less-than-pleasant fates, but at least I know where it's been most of its life...

Chipped for how much?
£3-400 should be the most you should pay for a remap... Check out the VW/Audi forum for details...

Chipping
Will definitely check the forums closer to the time - got the price from here, and it seemed reasonable. Cheaper is even better...
