 Yeh I love the seats in the Pirelli, I realise the yellow stitching isn't to everyones taste but it's not as bright as some pics make out!  :happy2:


Yellow or Black calipers?
Yellow grill strip?
Yellow/black Vw wheel centres?

 You made the right decision ditching the ST  :happy2:

The pirelli is a beautiful car , but would look incredible with some monza shadows  :drool:

Good to see you back in a mark 5 gti Nath :happy2: Great choice the Pirelli.

Have you decided what software, exhaust, intake to get to stage 2? Just being nosey whether you will use the same components as you did for your edition 30 or try alternatives  :party:

Nice one Nath :happy2:

Best MkV colour (I'm biased too!)

Glad to see you got a VW again and finally ditched the F**d.

I'm hoping to see a lovely sparkly silver Pirelli detail thread soon then  :party: :popcornsoda:
Golf R gone.

Don't be so sure Alan, he's already sorted lots of bits and pieces out before he even took delivery of the car! He's even raided my garage! :signLOL:

Welcome back Greeners - What are you going to dress the old girl in?

I would recommend jeffs werkstatt on silver - It looks great on my Akoya silver Audi, and the detailing god himself recommended it to me (JPC)


Gone - Candy White MK5 Golf GTI (you never really forget your first true love...!)
MK7 Candy White GTI pp - you can never have enough eye candy

Thanks guys!  :drinking:

Yes a few bits have been gathered already, but more to come. I will update as and when things get fitted. I have no longing to stick with the same manufacturers as before, it's all about bargains this time as I have spent more than I was planning!

Detailing wise I'll use what I have at the moment but I'll certainly invest in some Jeffs if the main man said its the best for Silver!  :happy2:

Well done pal.  :pomppomp:  I much prefer the pirelli over the Eddie these days. I know Flora was desperate for a silver one, so at least you have your usual buyer back at the front of the que again.  :wink:  :happy2:

Enjoy it mate.  :drinking:

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