Newbie from Leeds
« on: September 04, 2015, 06:19:59 pm »
Hi, I've not long changed from a mk4 gti to my new mk5 1.6 fsi. I've had to downgrade power a bit for insurance purposes but think I've found a decent motor that I can work with.

So here is my Mk5 1.6 FSI SE 3dr which has only done 55k









I have plans for it but it may take a while for any of them to happen. I'm happy with it as is for now though :)

Thanks guys. Yes its a decent car, however it's currently in VW workshop as a lorry driver scraped my front end!! Its only very light damage though and its been paid for by them so not too bad.

Thanks dude.

There are many things I want to do to it but most of them will have to wait. First thing I'm looking at is wheels. Check out my build thread in the "My ride" link to the left for progress :)
