Title: hi from Spain

QUOTE=S2000_europe;1928819]Hello Everyone

I am Juan from Spain, currently owner of a Honda S2000 owner of a Golf GTI Mk5 MY05 I have to wait until January 2010 to get the VW

The Golf is going to be my daily driven car, but as I know me I would end modifying it, just a little.  I am not a power freak I prefer to work with suspension, wheels and tires.

It is my first time with a VW, The GTI did not keep my attention until the MK5

I use the Honda S2000 for track road or routes on secondary roads.

I will try to learn as much as possible and trying to do my best to contribute to this community.

before the Golf I bought a Renault Twingo 133 CV Cup, is a small hot hatch less than 2.000 lbs and 135 HP and suspension tweaked by the Renault Sport division, below there is a picture

But I am going to marry so I need a 5 door car, an S2000 and a Twingo is not very rational, My future spouse has a Mini, so one of us has to sell the car....... ME!
I can't argue that my car is faster, with more grip, more power, less weight and less MPG.... So I bought an used MKV GTI manual with 5 door and I promise to myself that I  will not going to mod it....... I just talked with a tuner for a chip&Turbo& fuel pump upgrade, an looked for a BBS Ch or Volks Racing wheels  but i did not bought anything yet!!:biggrin:
