My First Golf, Mark5 GTI

(1/4) > >>

NeilFGTI:
Hello, So I'm pretty new to this.
Ive just bought my first Golf, a mark 5 GTI after admiring the golf for years.

Ive seen a lot of people on here doing modifications, being new to 'modding'
any advice would be much appreciated.

in particular, I've noticed a few people posting about polishing away imperfections,
in the paint and the headlights, I think this is as good a place as ay to start, as the interior is pretty immaculate.
though id like to update the head unit, as I don't own many CD's

Are, tornado red, a good choice of colour! Welcome to the forum.

Get yourself around the various boards, there's tons of information and how-to guides for a lot of things you can do (from simple service/routine jobs) right up to advanced stuff.

C'mon, give us some specifications and info about your new pride and joy... :wink:

NeilFGTI:
Thank you!
Ive been having a look around, theres some pretty impressive projects on here.
I spent a long time looking for on in Tornado Red.

Its a 2trl, with the Auto DSG gearbox. I think everything so far is as standard.
the alloys were re-furbed by the dealer, also had new cam belt, tensioners etc.
full black leather interior, very complex trip commuter etc, that I'm getting to grips with.
can't think of anything else to say.
its definitely my new pride and joy, my old car was a Fiesta, so this is quite a big step up.

Jeffchiz:
The xenon headlights are an option that not too many gtis have

NeilFGTI:
I do like the Xenon Headlights.
though they do need a clean up.
