My first gti :)
« on: April 18, 2015, 10:48:04 am »
Hey everyone I'm Ryan, 22 from Dorset Be bought my first gti mk5 last week! Don't collect it until Tuesday but eager to get researching!

I don't want to modify it too much to begin with more of upgrading stereo to Android / sat Nav and making it all clean and nice :) 

So the car is a 2005 red 5 door Gti. Has 44, 000 miles on with tartan interior, 17 inch monzas and I'm not 100 percent sure on the exact specs like rain and light sensors.
So here it is.. 


I would like suggestions on cheap easy type of mods first, you know the standard everyone does them ones ;)  thanks!
