Title: Nimal's Shadow blue gti
Post by: madnemo on March 26, 2024, 03:25:07 pm
It's my 1st post and I've been a silent member on here gathering info etc. Ive bought my 1st mk5 gti last November using the ulez scrappage grant scrapping my old passat for 2k and adding my own money on top buying a mk5 gti. It's all standard apart from a res delete which the previous owner didn't even know. It's not fully speced out, but has a decent spec. factory xenons, washers in the bumpers, highline clocks, dsg, mfsw, rain sensors, auto headlights, cruise control. hasn't got sunroof, rear sensors or e/folding mirrors which I'm not fussed about. Long term plans is a major service belts, water pump, cam chain, vvt seals etc. Ive Already changed the oil, filter, oil pick up pipe and cam follower.

Few niggles I sorted out since I've owned the mk5. Changed the glovebox as it was hiding a factory phone holder behind a magnet that was stuck on.
