Not an owner, just a fan!
« on: September 20, 2009, 07:28:16 pm »
Dont have a mk5, but always quite liked them. Would love a mk5 R32 then go down the turbo route. Mk4's are awesome but wouldnt pay 13k for a minter when i could get a mk5 for 16! Currently driving a Fabia VRS, do a load of miles to work as an apprentice joiner, so nothing fits the bill better than the fabia, great on fuel, goes really well with the mods and its held its money great over the 2 years ive had it.

Mates with Toast on here, been in his edition 30 many a time! Nice motor. Should have kept the 19's though!  :P

Might have some mk5 R32 brakes, front and rear up for sale soon to!  :happy2:

Anyway heres a few pictures of the skud! Done a fair bit to it over the 2 years!
