Tornado red GTI + pics of some of my old cars. ** UPDATED**
« on: January 10, 2013, 07:52:46 pm »
I had a black mk 5 golf gti a while ago now but sold it to try a few other cars. After having a couple other cars I realised the best all rounder ive owned is the golf being sporty but still having luxuries, so I bought a tornado red one. Here is some pics of my previous cars and my new GTI. Sorry about the quality of some of the pictures my phone camera seems to be getting worse and worse.

My old mk 5 gti

....Becky and Toby by any strange coincidence?

No, we're not bored - We're car enthusiasts. I like the M3 (though much prefer hardtops).  :happy2:

Just some cheapy adjustable coilovers off ebay mate, think they were called Lo suspension or something, was going for looks rather than performance. It did look good but scrubbed alot in the front arches. I sold it purely because I fancied a change... so I tried a few things then found myself back with another mk 5 GTI.
