My Golf TDI Sport...
« on: April 24, 2011, 11:44:17 am »
Well thought I'd put up a few pics of my 07 Golf TDI Sport.

Would have loved a GTI but with the mileage I do I had to go diesel as my old Octavia vRS was getting a tad thirsty lol.

At the min its not much to look at but give it time and I should have it look good all being well.

Only mods so far have been the GTI headlights and my double din fitted.

Should be buying some 19 inch Neuspeed alloys for it next month  :smiley:

Welcome  :happy2:

Those factory seats are really cool. I think my mate has them in his 07 TDI S too, although I thought they were exclusive to the S model?
Having sat in most of the Mk5 TDI seats, I prefer those/the S seats by miles compared to the OEM GT TDI seats which seem to look and feel so dull.

Tbh it was the interior that made me buy it as I loved the seats, especially as on my old Vectra I spent arond 4k retrimming etc so wanted this one to have something I was happy with lol.

Main plans are 19's, lower it, bigger brakes, new front/rear bumpers, exhaust, skirts, remap etc those kind of things, it still looks fairly tidy for a car thats got 100k on the clocks too, still feels like new.

Nice car man. I've just picked up a 2.0 TDI myself too. Great cars I say. quite liking your interior too. Mines is a GT Tdi so just the boring seats inside  :wink: Whats your plans engine-wise? Going for a remap anytime? I'm looking to head down the same route as you with the front bumper. Do you know the GTI and newer GT front bumpers are the same except the badges/grilles/etc obviously.

Its a bit more in depth to change the bumper sadly http://uk-mkivs.net/forums/t/157484.aspx

I'm looking at possibly having the shark remap for mine, but fairly happy with it so far  :smiley:

Its been a little bit like xmas today  :grin:

Firstly I had my GT front bumper arrive, then my GTI rear bumper and GTI front splitter.









I had my GT US spec grille arrive yesterday...



And then this evening I met up with a fellow member after work and collected this off them...



Still got loads more bits I need to sort out for the front bumper conversion but made a decent start lol.
