My Reflex Silver 3dr GTI DSG
« on: August 21, 2011, 09:19:17 pm »
Thought it was about time I posted a few pics of my MK5 GTI, most of the pics are from my Euro Road Trip, which ive written about the photography section of the forum

The car in complete standard form, although its loaded with a lot of optional extras including:
Electric leather heated seats
DSG gearbox
Xenon lamps
Electric sunroof
Electric folding mirrors with puddle lights
Auto lights with coming home feature
18" Alloy wheels
Rear parking sensors
Centre arm rest with rear air vents
iPod kit

 The only changes I have made are to retrofit the cruise control and have the 18" Monzas refurbed with a polished face with black inserts as they were in a bad way when I got the car.

















Future plans include a Revo Stg 1 map, Milltek exhaust and side window deflectors, when funds allow of course!

Well done for uploading all those pics!! I enjoyed looking at them. i've done a few road trips round europe now but never taken the golf always hired cars. Yours pics bought back good memories of last years trip from france through switzerland into germany briefly into poland then back through germany, belgium returning to france, happy days!

I can recommend a few places, berlin is well worth a visit, bertschsgaden in germany is truly beautiful and the millau viaduct in france is worth stopping at, along with so many other places.

Thanks for triggering the memories I'm looking at my photos again :happy2:

Oh yeah your car is looking good aswell I nearly bought a silver gti but got a better deal on a black one.

Candy White 5 door mk6 gti  and a escort cosworth for wasting money on!!

Thanks for the recommendations! Although I think we might concentrate more on western Europe next time, taking in more of Spain, France and then Monaco, Switzerland and Germany again, although I would love to go to Berlin!
