It's my MK5 GT - Pictures!
« on: February 18, 2011, 08:33:58 pm »
Hello all,

I now own a VW Golf GT - 3dr MK5 2007 (56) plate with 52,000 miles. There are a few minor 'niggles' with this car that I have already started to address - For example, The condition of the body work was appalling when I first got the car but now...
























I took the car to a very skilled friend who given his time frame did a fantastic job. I really can't thank him enough.

If you are interested further and wish to see the whole process - Please do click the link below.

I hope that you all enjoy - If you do have any questions about the car/methods used please do post up and I will try to answer them the best I can for you.

Many thanks,
Rob.

Nice car but you may want to change your first line about it not being a Skoda!  :laugh: We don't mind that!  :grin:

Got a spare Charleston in the garage with slight kerbing you can have for £50!  :wink:

I'm located in Swindon/ Bedfont so could either meet half way or pay postage for the alloy?

I have already removed the huge ariel and replaced it with a Sharan one. I'm thinking about some Bentley alloys, Big brakes and making it low at this point.
