Joined the GTI Club with Black 07 GTI
« on: November 16, 2015, 07:53:36 pm »
Hello everyone, joined up here for some inspiration . Recently purchased an 07 Black GTI which I'm made up with. So far had to do new tires, tracking and 4 wheel alignment. Replaced missing door skin bolt trim, binned disgusting blue interior lights and fitted aux input so I can use my phone for music and fitted a nice set of GTI authentic matts. Car is great, brake pads and discs and potential front wheel bearings change next week as there's a whine when gaining speed (open to advice here). After that wheel refurb and paint detail with a stage 1 I'm thinking.
If anybody has any new owner advice for must check or changes then please let me know! Speak to you all soon no doubt. :driver:

Hi there, I'm from Widnes in the North West.  Trying to figure out how to insert a picture so this may go wrong!  Haven't taken any good ones yet, only the photo I had from buying it.

Looks lovely in black, wheels don't look too bad?

Cheers, wheels are pretty good. One of them is particularly rough so figured I'd just get the lot done so they're all perfect. Was very tempted by a set of 18's on ebay the other day that failed to get a bid at £650. I'll put more pics on if it ever stops raining!
