Dougie's Red Mk6 GTi

Db4193:
Been on the forum a while, mainly just browsing etc, but never introduced myself or that. Think mainly because it's a mk5 forum and there wasn't a section for us mk6 guys  :sad:.
Anyway after seeing the new section I thought I'd stick a thread up  :smiley:

Bought myself a mk6 gti with a couple not mod's already done a few months back. It's my 3rd car but first German car, have a caddy max for work but don't really count that. I'm coming from a fn2 type r so although similar still very different and still getting used to the golf. Here's a few shots of my old cars.





Loved the type r but felt like a change and to be honest a golf wasn't really something i had been looking at but when this one came up with all the options, such low mileage and a few bonus mod's I felt I had to go for it.
The car has just ticked over 15k and is immaculate  :smiley:
Here's some pics after the only wash I've been able to give it so far  :signLOL:

















The red paint definately keeps a clean look longer than my fn2 and I'm glad to not have to keep up with black paint anymore  :grin:

As it stands the car has a VW Racing cat back and carbon air intake with pipercross stage2 intake pipe so my plans are to get a sports-cat and downpipe and get the bluefin stage2 map I have uploaded for the summer when the weather perks up. Also hoping to upgrade the brakes but just looking into the possible options at the moment such as the ttrs and golf r route.
Just need to replace the ditch finders that the dealer put on the front before I bin the car through lack of grip so will be getting Goodyear eagle f1's all round in the next few weeks since I've had them before and rate them very well for the price.

Anyway I have probably went on a bit so that's all for now, will update as I go along :smiley:

Thanks mate. Yeah I'll probably be going back to Honda for my next car. Can't whack a bit of vtec  :driver:
Maybe once I've got a bit more power in the golf I might change my mind but and be a full turbo convert  :ashamed:

Banham:
Very nice car. Looks very tidy :happy2:
