Newbie ~ GTI Pirelli
« on: March 14, 2014, 07:54:06 am »
Hello all.

Been hiding in the weeds for a year or so. Thought it's about time I posted :ashamed:

Now that my daughter is 18 months old, I have a bit of time spare for the car.

Had the Pirelli about 10 months now and love it.

My VW history
Previous:-
Lupo 1.0
LupoGTI 5spd
Polo 1.4S twist

Currently:-
LupoGTI 6spd (use for commuting)
GTI Pirelli

I will post some pictures up later today, along with more info relating to what I've already done, future plans e.t.c.

Hello mate,

Welcome to the forum. Mind you if you've got an 18 mth old daughter I doubt you will EVER really have any spare time  :grin:

Nice sounding car by the way   :happy2:

As Promised here are a few pics.

Not very good location / light for pictures today.

If you notice a difference between the Pic's, 2 cameras were used.

The eagle eyed amongst you may notice one of my work-in-progress mods.

Currently running winter wheels/tyres (Pirelli Sottozero 3's)










OEM GPS shark fin was installed last week, with the original bee sting re-located under the headlining.

Thanks for the comments.

These are my winter wheels (Audi sport).

Pirelli wheels are in the garage, probably should put them back on now it's abit milder.
