My new GTi
Jungle_Faced_Jake:
Cheers Gareth. Nigel you've had a similar history to me. I started off with a Mk1, then a Mk3 and now a Mk5. The others were great too but the Mk5 is in a different class. I wouldn't mind another Mk1 though, I'm becoming very nostalgic about them lately. The Mk5 would eat it for breakfast but they are such great fun, like driving a little go cart :smiley:

Funny you should say that Jake...i have been looking for resto jobs on ebay recently...mk2 16v this time. i still love the mk1 but remember testing a mk2 16v and loving it but ended up with a highly tuned vr6 instead which was an absolute hoot! i really miss that car. that was also reflex silver but done in a pearl effect :drool:
if you don't mind me asking, how much was it to have the front and rear bumpers and side skirts prepared and painted please?
Jungle_Faced_Jake:
I was fortunate that the previous owner already had these done so that saved me a few bob as I would have done them myself otherwise. Don't know why VW chose not to colour code them along with putting standard rear lights on :confused: Seems they were cutting some corners in places. Once I get the remap done it'll be the car it should have been when it left the factory :happy2: What's next after that I don't know yet :signLOL:
