New lad from sunderland
« on: October 23, 2012, 11:53:17 pm »
Just thought I'd put a quick intro up as I've been on the forum a little while now and got some great info and I'm finally picking my gti up on friday.  :laugh: :driver:

I'll be putting another thread up to try and get some advice on what the best starting performance modifications are to make soon.

Here is a quick car history, no real performance cars here  :sad1:

First car mk2 jetta 1.3


mk2 golf 1.6


mk3 golf 1.8


mk3 ibiza 1.6


BMW e30 1.8iS


B6 Passat 2.0 tdi
