Title: 54 plate red gti 5 door
Post by: Chrisl85 on March 21, 2017, 07:49:34 am
Thought I'd introduce myself properly as I've already posted queries  :P . I'm from Anglesey North Wales, I bought my GTI beginning of December from a trade seller in Birmingham, I paid a very low price for the car as it was in a neglected state. (I'm guessing the previous owner is not a member of this Group :wink: ) . Shes done just over 101k now, I am now way over the 1000 mark in the spends department and I recon I'm 75% into restoring the car to its former glory. Will be venturing into performance and visual upgrades once bodywork has been sorted and the timing belt has been done. Looking forward to speaking to you all although I'll be requesting advice not giving it as I'm clueless  :grin:
