Hi there Ladies and Gents,
Im not new to the forum as ive owned a MK5 Golf GTI for the last 4 years but never had a chance to make a build thread and by the time i had done a hell of a lot of things it just seemed long to start one.
When i first got my LC9Z Black GTI Manual back in Oct 2011:

In short she was completely standard when i bought her from a lady who owned this car from brand new and i pretty much did a hell of alot of oem+ cosmetic touches,handling and performance mods including major mods such as Quaife Lsd and ko4 conversion running AMD Stage 2+ software.
And now....i have just taken ownership of my new lovely Steel Grey Edition 30 Manual once again which is completely stock for now :evilgrin: in place of my lovely GTI which is gone now :( but not forgotten :

Will get some more pics up and update my plans for the new lady soon :p

Very nice ED30 there - did you go for manual or DSG? Your old GTI sounds as though it was very well sorted indeed!

Cheers bud :happy2:...i have updated the thread now :)..my old GTI was manual and due to me having only recently have had a 5,000 miles TT Spec manual box built up with a Quaife LSD By Alex at AKS Tuning i kept the box and decided to go for a Manual ED30 so i can chuck it on the ED30 once i get the chance.
Although DSG was very tempting :evilgrin: i do love my manual boxes and stuck to manual... :P

Great buy in a lovely colour. :happy2:
You know what to do with it, so I'm expecting to see it "grow" strong and steadily soon. :drinking:
