Mk5 Newbie
« on: June 29, 2010, 06:34:10 pm »
Hi,

Just got the keys to my 2007 Mk 5 GTI, its totally standard n black but hopefully not for too long, looking to get bigger wheels, lowered, bigger brakes and some more power.

This is my 4th Golf, the others being a Mk1, and 2 x Mk3 VR6 (the last 1 being a supercharged version)

Will be looking thru the forum to get hints & tips and maybe some parts if anyone is selling any goodies?  :jumping:

I used to be a member of the VR6OC so i'm hoping this forum is as good!  :happy2:

I'm married with 2 kids and live & work in Swindon.

Looking forward to meeting some the other members on here!  :notworthy:
