Irish_Mk5:
Hi all

First post here- just an intro to my mk5.

It’s actually quite a rare spec. It’s a single owner 2009 model that was imported all the way from Australia to Ireland! All original parts, black leather interior, 6 disc cd changer, oem bottle opener, heated seats, air con. Even has an untouched oem first aid kit!

I picked up some little gti seat handle inserts and also invested in these genuine OZ alloys with Asymetric 5 tyres :)
I have some plans for more mods but next up will hopefully be a revo stage 1 map with before and after dyno runs. It could also use a detail to freshen up the paint.

I’m sure I forgot stuff there but let me know what you think!

Edit: I remember now where the rest of my money went:
Timing belt done, cam follower done, thermostat done, new battery, new Ariel, heko wind deflectors.
It’s also low mileage, bought at just 120,000km!!

Jons1001:
G'day mate!

Car looks in good nick, and good to hear of the work you've done. Only thing you didn't mention is dsg service, is it up to date?

I don't usually like aftermarket alloys on the mk5 but they really do look good  :happy2:

Keep the thread updated with any mods you do will be interested to read about it.

Joeymc:
Very nice. The leather looks pretty clean for 11 years old 👍

shannon-ob:
That looks great on the OZ wheels mate. Car looks to be a very tidy example, great find.

Irish_Mk5:
Good question about the DSG service. I’ll need to double check that one and get it done!

Almost forgot to show this prized possession  :signLOL:



Another picture for the groupies:




I’m also looking for opinions on window tint.
What do people think on doing the back 3?
It can look good, but it can also give it a van-like look I feel!?
