Hi everyone, I've just got myself a Mk5 GTI. From Milton Keynes
« on: March 16, 2015, 07:27:02 am »
Hi everyone!

Just wanted to say hello! My name is Rog, I'm 43 and I've just bought a Black 3dr 2005 GTi as abit of a rolling project. It has goodish spec too, including auto lights and dimming rear view mirror. It needs some loving to restore it back to it's former glory. There are a few niggly things to sort but nothing too bad ,the alloys need changing to 18"s, a new head unit, centre armrest and the list goes on and on....... :laugh:

I am no stranger to to the VAG group. I have had a few VW's, Audis and have a Skoda Octy VRS. I'm also on many forums too!

Here is a few pics of my old cars,

So, I'm very happy with my new motor. I have a Project thread/album on FB if anyone wants to follow it. I am heavily into detailing so will be "turning the clock back" on this GTi :smiley:

Welcome along mate. My car is in desperate need of some detailing, maybe you can sort me out? lol

I've got a set of 18's for sale in the "for sale" section if you're interested, cheers.

I can sort you out detailing, as I am a weekend detailer, for the past 4 years, professionally trained too  :happy2:

Thanks for the heads up with your alloys, but I'm after Monza 2's or the BBS VZ with tyres too :smiley:

Hello,

I too have just bought a GTI, a red 5 door, and also live in MK. Mine is more of a daily driver (my other passion is Mk1 Escorts) but the Golf will also be getting some love.

I almost went for red, but I am a sucker for black cars :smiley:

The mk1 Escorts, sound awesome too, you don't see many around now.
