just looked, its has got 'motorpoint newport' on the plates, how did you know? is it good or bad haha

[Matto]

Haha. No nothing wrong with that. Just that you said you had it from wales and its an exact copy of mine except silver. Bought mine from Cardiff and is also a Motorpoint Newport car. Only thing I will say is something you might not know is that it is classed as an import due to the way Motorpoint purchase their cars. Direct from Germany as opposed to VWUK. It just makes it more difficult gettin ny warranty work done. Are you aware of the injector recall?

That's good then. I had abit of a fight to get mine done but after a little call to VOSA it was all sorted.

Nice car mate, love the wheels.  It's good to have another TDI join the pack.  Looks like it's had a bit of work done, ED30 front splitter and rear bumper i think, may have been remapped too.

We are having a meet in Kent this weekend, come if you can.  http://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/index.php/topic,45801.0.html
