New first time GTI owner
« on: January 03, 2016, 06:41:51 pm »
First ever GTI. Just bought a 05 Mk5 91k 3 door in Candy white.  Great fun to drive and loving the DSG. 2 owners full service history just serviced two weeks ago including DSG oil change.  Its nearly standard might just keep it as is.

That looks like a beauty - very nice colour.

Are you from the UK? Looks too sunny......

Looks like a US spec front grill and parking sensors and ED30/R32 rear lights from what I can see?

Lovely looking car though I have a candy White GTI too:

This looks good.

Think it also has open fog grills and headlight washers (Think these are usually only fitted to cars with xenon lights).
