Welcome.

I see you haven't owned any MK3 or MK4 Golf's? I'm personally a big fan of the MK2.

What's your plans for the MK5?

MK 3 & 4 GTIs really let the side down

I did borrow a mates MK3 VR6 for a while, it had a vortech supercharger.  It was dragon green, standard brakes and suspension, even down to granddad spec mudflaps.  Except it would out drag my M3 - great fun :smiley:

Plans for the MK5 - drive it.  Do lots of road trips that I've been unwilling to do in the MK2.
Enjoy the powersteering, aircon and leccy windows  :happy2:
It's got the remap, Miltek and pipercross panel filter and knocking out 300ish bhp.
Already put some LED sidelights in, will get a LED reverse light as soon as I can PM the chap on here.
Ordered some S3 bushes for the consoles.
Swapped out the crappy HU for normal Alpine with bluetooth.
