Hello Everyone!
« on: September 02, 2010, 07:36:08 pm »
Hi all , new member here , Ive just done the deal to buy an 05 GTI 3 door in Tornado Red. It has the full leather trim inside ,the CD changer in the centre console and 18" wheels which , after perusing your forum I now suspect are Reps and not the real thing (Monzas but plain silver not diamond cut) unless the previous owner had them refurbed that way I guess. Anyhow , I loved the drive , and its got a full VWSH with 37K on the clock , and I think it looks great! Im moving from a 68BHP Skoda Fabia that Ive owned for 5 and a bit years so it should keep me entertained for a while!! :grin: I have owned 3 VWs before but this is the first one thats had water in the engine  :signLOL: I hope it is as good as my old Octavia Mk1 vRS was to drive , and so far the signs are promising :happy2:

Anyway , heres a pic taken off my phone when I done the deal , I pick it up next Wednesday (first time ive ever wanted a weekend to go fast!!) so will stick some more up when ive went over it with my Meguiars shaped magic wand!  :wink:



Oh and Im getting it from Western VW in Edinburgh , through the approved used scheme.

Hi and welcome.  :drinking:

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.
