^^^^^

Lol ain't that the truth.

Welcome :happy2:

I too was like you once. Not wanting/needing to do something to the car. That fact that there are so many great upgrades available for our cars and how easy they are to apply.
I have gone crazy-ish. lol

Very nice clean BMP GTI you got there.

hey guys............

im loving it, such a nice drive..... taken it up 1 junction and back on the m5 but thats all so far, was nice to be able use the sliproad to actully build up some speed for a change, instead of crawling onto the motorway..zzzz (wont quote what speed i got up to) :)

im gonna stay away from engine mods as i just dont know enough about the mechanical side of cars, I am keen to increase its loooks, having said that it looks great as it is, so without going over the top is there much i can do?! Tax disc holder? ha...jokes. I like the standard alloys, although could upgrade to 18's?....

any suggestions would b much appreciated!

...my brothers next door neighbour has a gti as well so thought id take a quick snap shot whilst together! (he also has a Ferrari so will try get 1 of the two at some point :)

Hi and welcome.

Black GTIs are always sexy.  :love:

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