This raises the interesting question of what percentage of GTI owners are 'enthusiasts'? (Defining people like us as 'enthusiasts').
Judging by the percentage of other GTI drivers I see on the road who don't acknowledge a wave (or is it simply English reserve?), it's a sad indication. I guess that for some, the GTI badge only indicates a different model of Golf and merely satisfies their badge snobbism.
:sad:

i would say compared to say a Ford ST forum or Seat cupra we are way way behind in the percentage stakes, its something i have noticed since buying the GTi
Greeners:
Put it this way Robin, I have two Golf GTI's on my fleet and when I see the state they let these cars get into I realise it was more of a badge thing than an enthusiasts choice.
It's a shame but hopefully the second owners of these company cars will be buying them for what they are and joining us here :happy2:

Hi Nathan,
I spoke to Nigel this morning - Extremely helpful chap - I wanted to two-tone (black on the inserts) powdercoat my Monza 18's, but it's not possible to get a clean line as it's all painted.
However, I'm going to visit them to check out their colours.
:happy2:
