Born again vdubber
« on: January 30, 2010, 01:51:14 pm »
Afternoon all
Hi after years of vw ownership which includes two mk2 Gti's four Mk3 and two mk4 Gti T'S I for my sins moved away for a while to a Mazda Rx8 and currently a Bmw 320d
Latter part of last year i bought a tatty mk3 Gti that need lost of love just for a winter project
Cut a long story short i been bitten by the vdub bug again and decided to put the 320 up for sale and source a mk5 Gti
Will be looking for helps and tips re common faults and what to look for when buying a used mk5 Gti
Budget is 10k max. Thanks in advance guys

Welcome aboard!

There was a forum member with a tidy looking little number in Red + leather for 9.600 which looked excellent value. Might be in the classifieds.

Mark

....Not separate just for cars. They get listed with anything else car related in the For Sale section.

A Warm Welcome and once a VeeDubber, always a VeeDubber!
