Finally Found My MK5 GTI
« on: March 16, 2012, 06:41:39 pm »
Well after looking at maney unloved examples, I've finally found a MK5 GTI which I was happy to buy at BCA Preston, 200 mile round trip but worth it...

Three door in black with 17 monza's,full VAG History with the supplying dealer totally standard apart from the factory-fitted winter-pack,   :smiley:

The only mod I want to do is colour code the rear-valance, so if anyone has one left over from swapping to ed30 or r32 valance,let me know, saves me removing mine to get it prepped & painted..

Here's a couple of pics,
