Hello from Ireland
« on: March 31, 2013, 06:03:42 pm »
Hello All,

So, after months of looking and doubting whether I should buy a GTI, I have finally pulled the trigger! So just last week I got myself a 2007 MK V GTI, pictured below.

I've been doing a bit of lurking over the past while and have found this forum great. Now that I have something to actually write about it's time to register and get chatting.

See you on the forums :)

Thanks guys,

No real plans yet. I'll keep it pretty much stock I think.

I would like to get the rear bumper sprayed though, kind bugging me. How much you guys reckon that'd cost?

Also, I have the basic head unit and currently have the Parrot MKi9200. I'm really considering getting the Parrot Asteroid Smart. It seems like it would do loads for me. Probably get the Unika kit also, so that I can use the MFSW controls with it.

Welcome :smiley: Is there a sunroof or is that a sunroof-shaped shadow on the roof?
