aaron92:
my new gti that ive just brought and should be collecting Friday next week :laugh: :laugh:
pictures of it at the car dealers







Its a 54 plate registered very late in December with 96000 miles, full service history and its near on immaculate and I definitely get the impression the previous owner looked after it just small things like goodyears all round,the extensive history an the tidiness of the bodywork and interior.

ChrisGT:
Looks great!

Any plans for mods or just enjoy it the way it is?

Chris

aaron92:
Thanks :happy2: yeah lots of plans for mods but just going to do the basics to begin with a decent service with millers nano oil, replace dv with a revision g, and replace cam follower, then enjoy it for a bit then after that I want to go stage 1+ with a ram air oversized induction kit and pre cat delete hoping for between 250 and 260 bhp with r tech. sadly I have limited funds as my kid and house has to come first   :scared:

ChrisGT:
Sounds like a good plan. Yeah can understand family has to come first. Looks like a great base to start from though and very sensible getting the servicing stuff done first, that's the best thing you can do to keep it nice for longer.

picked up the car today   :pomppomp: and I absolutely love it  :smiley:
I took it straight back to the workshop and removed the dv before I even opened the bonnet and as I suspected

it was split in several places and it was a rev b so I wouldn't be surprised if its the original, I replaced it with a rev g that I had already ordered in ready and then road tested it, it was like a different car  :driver:
I then changed the oil and filter I only used 5w30 fully synthetic long life c3 for now as I'm going to do a couple of 100 miles then replace with millers 5w40 cfs  nanodrive as I wanted to give the engine a bit of a flush with some fresh oil first and the millers at £54 for 5 litres was expensive for a flush out. I have also ordered some NGK Iridium BKR7EIX spark plugs and a new cam follower and seal but I wont receive these until Monday. That's all for now just going to enjoy the car for the weekend and possibly detail it on sunday.
