Retro's ride :)
« on: April 24, 2014, 01:29:59 pm »
Good afternoon all

Ive had my Gti for a few weeks now but been lurking on the forum for a while!
Checked out tons of info before I decided what I wanted and then bought her.

She's a 3door DSG with paddles,
60k on the clock with full service,
Cambelt and water pump last week,
Fully coded bumpers and skirts.
18 inch alloys
Full leather (heated)
Rns500.
Multi function steering wheel
Auto lights
Auto wipers
Leather armrest
Cruise control

Here are a few photos ...





Bought her to replace my beloved bug as me and my wife needed two reliable cars to take our little girl to nursery.



The family car/my wife's car is an audi a3 sportback, s-line.

So our new GTi is for fun and trips to bugjam etc!

Let me know what you think  :happy2:

Thanks guys  :happy2:

I'd like to buy a rns510 and maybe upgrade the speakers as the standard ones I don't find very good.
My mk4 was on coilovers and I loved the stance so that will probably be my next purchase.

I'm sure I'll also get sucked in to a few group buys  :ashamed:
