Title: New member South Wales
Post by: Ben_jammin on January 03, 2017, 09:56:02 pm
Firstly, apologies, as I initially posted this in the wrong section.


Hi all! I've been lurking through the forum for some time and decided to register today.
I've got an 08 white manual gti which I've had now for around 8 months or so. This is my first VAG, I've always been a jap fan, but since I bought this I can't believe I waited so long.
Car history is a bit varied, mostly because of living in a bad area and cars have been damaged/stolen. Anyway: 1994 Vauxhall Astra 1.4 (stolen)
2002 Rover 25 1.4
2000 Toyota MR2 1.8
1998 Honda Integra type r 1.8 (vandalised/written off)
2005 Ford Mondeo ST 2.2D
2002 Honda S2000
I'm also a lover of the 2 wheels, I've currently got a Honda CBR600F, which may be making way for a fire blade in the near future.

My intentions are to go for a revo stage 1 at some point, just got done replacing the dv, and see where it goes from there.
Cheers!

Thanks! Yeah I'm in love with the colour, when it's clean, just a shame it doesn't stay that way for long.

Yeah, I have a mk7 in White and it's a mission keeping it clean.

Mental that is! I used to live in Blackwood as well.  Did you by any chance used to have a Mk2 and frequent the Newport Edition forum a few years back?
