    Thank God!!!! I thought I was the only one that slapped the DSG into 'S' mode opened up the sunroof fully and planted the left foot down when coming up to the nice tight twisty bits and yahhhhoooooooo'd like an idiot when I get the apex just right and have the ESP chirping like a canary having an epiletic fit!!!! Jeez i like driving mine something shocking and to hell with the fuel economy I say especially when you can overtake going around the outside of a corner on the putty rd with heaps of grunt left in her and grip surpassed only by a Porsche!!! (watch that last comment bring out the nay sayers!!!)

    But to one and all enjoy as you wish coz I know I do! And remember don't drive angry!

          Oh yeah, I love that turbo sound, especially when you're driving next to a concrete wall or similar where it reflects back in the window.

            I had a couple of 306 DTurbo's back in the UK and the good ones were the ones with the whistle, of the 2 that i owned the one with the loudest turbo was by far the fastest one too.

              Get rid of the stock airbox, and she starts to sound very breathy
