The Wifey-Mobile: The GTi She Didn't Want...

Nice looking MK5 with some nice touches, however I'm sure your wife does not like those seats, I have a lovely set of standard leather front seats which I am more than happy swap  :grin: :grin: :grin:

Hahahha! Nice try. Although she probably wouldn't notice if the seats were swapped. I don't think she'd notice that the car has now been bluefin'd either if I didn't tell her.

Do you know what, on the track that day as my bro in law lost control the thought that went through my head was "if he stacks it, and it's a write off, how am I going to find another GTi with the same seats!?".

Luckily he didn't stack it, but he'll never live this down now. The whole family has been taking the piss out of him non stop, which has been quite entertaining. "Oh no Jeff is turning right, watch out!!!!"

I'm pleased to report that the car was back on the road by Wednesday, thanks to the speedy work by Volks Autos in Sutton.

By way of apology to the Golf for the hard time it had last week...

Had a pioneer Apple CarPlay head unit fitted, with iPhone cable run to the compartment by the handbrake. Installer did a nice neat job...the surround fits perfect too.

All interior lights swapped for LEDs too, and fitted one of Olsen-72's USB sockets.

Also found a dial in the glovebox....is that what I think it is?

It's to enable/disable the vent which lets aircon into the glovebox. Good for chocolate bars in summer. That's about it.

Ha, thanks for that, started getting my hopes up it was refrigerated and I just hadn't noticed!

At least my yorkie bars will be safe now
