My Tornado Red GTi with a few goodies!

Hi Guys, my name is Chris and I'm 21 from near Leicester!
I bought the car standard when I was 20! It is a lovely low mileage, one owner car with full dealer service history! Options include winter pack, sunroof etc.
After owning a string of VW's including MK2 GTi 16v's and Lupo GTi's I decided to bite the bullet and buy the car I had my eyes on since I passed my test at 17!
So here is what it started off looking like....
Then, after a few months I purchased some FK Silverline X coilovers, Genuine Mercedes-Benz Alphard wheels and a US spec front Grille(apparently VW-UK only had 5 in stock, I sent four of them back because they were scratched or damaged!) and finally a MK6 golf boot badge as mine had become victim to the dreaded whiteworm!!....
215/40/18's on a 9.5J wheel
The front arches were rolled by plush automotive to avoid rubbing with the front wheels, and -4 deg camber in the rear to get the 9.5J sitting nicely! :happy2: Oh and helpers removed from the front coilovers....
Anyway...I reckon thats enough pictures for you to look at for the time being! I hope you like it :)
All comments appreciated....Chris

welcome to the forum Chris...not a fan of stretched tyres(only because i don't like fitting them at work as they can be a nightmare to blow onto the rims) but your car looks good :happy2:
