Hey guys, joined the forum a few weeks ago when I purchased my car! Not been able to do a lot but am itching to get going so I'll start my thread now :D
I'm 22 and I'd say this is my first real car, (others where slow and boring). It's a 5 door mk5 GTI with 44000 on the clock, 2005 plate with one owner from new :)
Pretty basic spec, no cruise control, very basic stereo but I'm not too fussed as I'll be upgrading it along the way.
Have ordered the seat inserts and some mats from eBay, and will give a quick lost of things planned for the first few months.
Soo...
1. Will be doing the cam belt and water pump as no sign of it being done yet.
2. Getting a few panels re sprayed to get rid of some damage and a wheel refurd, all for mates rates from a good friend.
3. An android head unit has been a must for all of my cars to date.
4. I'd like to get a nice sounding induction kit on the go. (suggestions welcome)
5. Replace front and rear lights with something a bit more mean looking, been looking at dectane lights but again I'd love suggestions.
6. I have 2 blank buttons next to the ESP off, any cool ideas for a use of these?
7. Ooo nearly forgot, badge whiteworm galore! So need to do centre caps and rear badge, reliable source for a new badge?
As I said my first proper motor here and I'm going to be doing a lot of learning along the way but really looking forward to it, will grab a few more pictures later.
Here's a few after a wash, autoglym super resin polish, and armorall sheild coating (brilliant stuff btw).
Some lovely beading from the armorall at the end, highly recommend!
