Im part of the swdubs.co.uk lot. We've got a big meet on 23rd january 1130am moto services, junction 30, m5 with a little cruise. Golf plus are there so there will be some coverage. I didnt think to put a post up in the meets section here but consider it done.

Cheers for the comments peeps. Took me a long time to find the spec i wanted although i missed out of the mfd2.

Coming from a citroen C1 (i know, i know it was cheap) and then to a mk3 8v and now this is a bit of a jump in power and comfort  :wink:

Is that laser blue? Looks a bit different, maybe due to the rain or light.

I think Shadow Blue was discontinued by VW as a colour option quite early IIRC.

You certainly don't see many Shadow Blue ones about so it may well have been discontinued. None of the blues are that common really. Not as rare as those seats though!

I'll be keeping an eye out for your car, I may be at the meet on Sunday but I've got some running about and wheel changing to do. You're far more likely to see my old Ibiza running about than my Golf though as I don't use it much, especially round town, so if a little black Ibiza GTI flashes you, it'll probably be me!
