Greeners New MK5, Back in the Game!! *Update 22/05/2012*
« on: February 03, 2012, 08:15:23 pm »
So as some of you are aware I recently sold my Focus ST (which was immense) and after doing fairly well on it I have managed to get back in a MK5 around 12 months earlier than I'd hoped!!  :jumpmove:

I did agonise for a while at which one I'd have, but as I will now be doing a few more miles I had to rule out another R32.

So back to the KO4 and there was only really one left I hadn't owned, so the search was on for a specific Pirelli! Had to be Silver, three door and decided to go DSG again as I've been recently suffering with sciatic pain in my lower back which had been aggravated when driving a manual.

Here she is the day I collected her. Obviously I have a few plans to mod but will only be going ST2.









Really happy so far and it goes far better than I remember when standard. Will keep things updated as there should be a few changes next week, firstly being a full correction detail as soon as the temperature gets above freezing!  :happy2:

Very nice mate - you need some Deeetroits on it though!

Did you ever consider a Rocco?
