Back in a MK5
« on: June 19, 2010, 06:24:46 pm »
Sold the Candy Mk6 2 weeks back and got this as a kind of part exchange,

Not my first choice but got it for abit of a bargain  :innocent: and the potential is there,

GT TDi 140 4 Motion ideally would prefer 2wd  
Solid Black
Factory Nav
Armrest and changer

As it came the prevoius owner had fitted 18'' r32 reps, rear Gti lower panel, GTi Sides, roof spoiler and rear windows tinted.

So far its mapped but have some plans over the next few weeks.

Gave it a quick clean today, on my 9th Golf now  :drinking:

Looks nice mate, looks as though the previous owner looked after it.
Mine me asking how much you paid, as the wife is interested in one of these.
Needs a thump with a stick though.

It was cheap enough  :P

Well after a just over 2 weeks its looking better,

H&R Supersports around 50mm lowered and some Audi BBS reps, 225/35/19 tyres which look great i think,

Just got to decide on later GT front or Votex lip hmm, -

Looks awesome mate  :happy2:

Where did you get the reps from? Are they the ebay ones? They look good quality.

and where is the best place for a set of h&r supersports? I fancy changing my eibach pro kit to these.

oh and gt front end for me too mate but with the jetta grill black with chrome bars

cheers
