replica gtis/ed30s/R32s

[Cooper]

Theres a goon near me with a 1.4 with R32 wheels and badges, completely standard apart from that..

GOON

Is that a silver one Jonny? Think I have seen it about.
Was riding round looking like an R32 except it still had the standard rear bumper, and a friend of a friend who has an R32 had his rear bumper stolen overnight whilst parked on his drive and then a few days later the R32 rep had an R32 rear bumper without the exhaust!

If someone wants to spend their hard earned making a car look like something it isn't then good on you I say!  

But whatever you do don't put a badge on it trying to 'pretend' it actually is!  

+1.

I would never make a car look like something it isn't.

As for insurance, how many of these people are gonna inform them they've turned their non-GTI to look like a GTI? I'd imagine not many!

Doesnt someone on here own a diesel that looks like an ED30   

sh*t the bed, I'd better remove my splitter at once!

lol
iv seen replica gti's that are fully loaded and look better than the real gti's
i myself own a replica gti and a real 1 and i more thing iv seen 200bhp gt tdi leave a 200 bhp gti at the lights so just because you own the real deal dont make it all that
you should come huddersfield mate ill show you gti replicas that you wont be able to tell apart unless you open the bonnet.

and r32's aint all that there just hyped up drug dealer cars round here i see 17/18 year old kids rag the sh?@ out of them

Yeah it is, the guy who drives it is a complete ****.. Wouldn't surprise me if it was them responsible..

the term replica makes me smile, whats wrong with fake 

[red-snake]

if that was my bumper id take a few lads round wid bats/hammers and cave his head in then take it back

[Poverty]

Dont mind sorted replicas, what I do hate is people with boggo models with no mods sticking on GTI,BMW M or Audi S badges.

There is a Fiat punto round my way where someone has stuck on VW TDI badges and polo 16v badge 

[red-snake]

.he's what you call a silly cu@?

Yes, it's the badges which cause the offence if they aren't true. I don't quite understand someone going to the trouble of creating a replica but we're all different.

A guy I know locally has made his Mk5 TDI look like a GTI and done it very well but of his own accord he is against badging it as a GTI. When I gave him a spirited ride in mine to show him what a real GTI was like he was gobsmacked!

[mortygttdi]

Im with Greenouse  I dont mind fake unless its badged up thats why mine has no badges at all



I also tried to keep it low key so it doesn't initially stand out has a GTI,  Im also bored of the gti look so on the look out for the Jetta/GT front end now,

I tested loads of cars before I decided on my current GT tdi sport,  I dont regret it one bit,  Although I will be waiting for the price of the new GTi to come down cos im quite liking them now they've grown on me.

Darren, have you ever thought about adding a red lip on the front splitter and some black wheels with red edges?

I assume you'll be selling her as is and not put back to original GT.
