Title: New from ednburgh
Post by: Black9 on September 19, 2011, 10:51:40 am
Not really new :laugh: been on for a while but never introduced myself.

I'm from Edinburgh and bought myself a tornado red 3dr GTI around 2 months ago. Always loved VAGs and my first car being a Lupo GTI knew I had to get back onto the scene after owning a few Type R hondas.

Seems like a great forum btw with some real nice examples :happy2:

Welcome fellow Edinburger. Where abouts you from? I live just outside Edinbugh just off the bypass. You had your GTI for long? If you're free on Saturday morning a few of us are heading thru to Extreme Motorsport in Whitburn for a mini meet/Rolling Road.

I know there is another VAG Group that meet at the lower floor of the car park at Fountain Park on the last Friday of the month. Not sure if they still do it, went quite a while ago and seemed decent!

Is that Scottish VAG? Or uk-mkivs? Wouldn't mind heading along myself, next Friday (30th Spet) is the last of the month so should there be one on then?

EDIT - looks like its ScotishVAG. About time I logged back on there to find out.  :wink:
