MK5 Golf GTI

Met Scott(golfman) and Ed to have cruise and bi-xenon lights coded and entry door warning lights fitted and coded,Awesome job guys

Interim 6k mile service and changed the AUX belt.

Fitted a new Edition 30 handbrake cover, added the ED30 badge from the GB on here to the engine bay slam-panel, and then fitted a new Rev G diverter valve & new PCV valve.

First time of getting my hands dirty with the new car - I cursed the engine cover, & that terrible spring clamp that VW use to fit the intake to the engine cover ! Fitting a jubilee clip in it's place tomorrow...

Took my car to PDT on wednesday to get my BCS de-cat downpipe fitted and stage 2

Resulted in 275.8 bhp and 300ftlb very happy with the results and the car pulls much better 

Had four Eagle F1 assym2's fitted today.
Hope they're as good as all the reviews.

I'm interested to see people's views on these tyres as I need some new ones

Took the car yesterday to have the rear arches sorted, bits smoothed and then painted.

Today i stripped my £16 bmx to get powder-coated on monday with my winter wheels  

Been in an accident. My first in my entire 8 year history of driving. 

Gave my exhaust a clean before it goes on
