Especially since upgrading to ADB (adaptive driving beam) headlights. Dynamic Light Assist (DLA) in VW speak. Best mod ever. If you drive at night, this is a game changer for night vision, spotting deer etc.
Pros: game changer, night vision

Now I have a 19 R DSG, and I've tracked it twice (Summit Point and VIR) with nothing more than new rotors, Ferodo brake pads and Motul 500 fluid. I never had any overheating issues with either the brakes or the oil, but both weekends were cooler weather.
Pros: no overheating issues
