Thinking of bailing out on my ED30!!!!

[jhtrophy]

the good thing about getting an m3 is you would have the fun of learning to drive again, i would be very impressed with myself if i got an m3 round the ring as quick as i can the meg, lots of warning from FWD would be difficult to beat your time in anything to be honest, because a powerfull fwd is the easiest way of doing it, i have flown past caterams etc around the ring that are just all over the place and thought they are having so much more fun than me. would be a csl for me if i could not afford gt3rs. do it mate

Forgotten anything?....







....Rear strutbrace?

[big al]

I would sell mate,  (but not before you sell me your rear lights!!!)
Though in all seriousness, it would be saft to sell it after you have spent so much time and effort making it the car it is.
Though I guess that is part of the fun owning it, mod it, and once satisfied move on, a bit like women really..........?!

....Does that mean you've decided to keep your GTI, Neil?

Yes but thats only part of the story, I've had to pull up some trees and extend my drive ... just doing my bit for the environment.

It's a great testament to the Mk5 GTI/Ed30 that so many owners are so full of praise when they do eventually part with them, or continue keeping them so long in spite of usually changing their car regularly often (Hurdy, for example) or, like yourself, keep them as a second car.

I'm feeling the R36 transplant (with forced induction) with 4WD into a new shape Scirocco at the moment. A 600bhp Scirocco with 4WD and looking stock from the outside would be a great stealth car
