A huge thankyou to all who have put up with my totally anally retent posts over the past few months. I am now a proud owner of my first GTI and what a beaut. I will get pics up this weekend hopefully as I don't pick the car up until tomorrow.

Here is a run down.

Manual
Monza 2's
Xenons
MFSW
37500 miles
FVWSH
Timing Belt changed
Cost = £10,000 plus I get it put through MOT next year
Tornado Red
Bought from main dealer

Guy was gutted due to my haggling and bargaining skills lol

Congratulations, sounds like you negotiated a great deal there. There's no going back once you have a GTi, well at least not for me, I'm on my third one now. I suppose if a nice 911 came my way i.e. if I had the dosh, then I might be tempted to jump ship :evilgrin: You will find your bank balance rapidly depleting if you're not careful. So much you can do :wink:
