Title: My new Gti in Irish countryside!!
Post by: Mark_eire on February 16, 2010, 06:26:20 pm
Here's my new (well new to me) 2007 Gti.
I've had 2x 2005 Gti's before but just bought this one last week. Love it!!
It has less spec than my previous Gti's but has the vital extra's I wanted.
Dsg, Sunroof, MFD2 nav (soon to be changed to an RNS510), MFSW, Highline, Xenon's, Dual climate, Ipod prep, Interlagos cloth (which I love, never seen it in the flesh until I looked at this car. Looks so much better than pictures portray)

Anyway, took my wife for a romantic drive on Sunday, any excuse to drive this thing!!
These pictures were taken at a place called Hook Head (hook lighthouse in background) in Wexford on southern coast of Ireland.
Car got a bit dirty on the way there!! lol

Your car looks very nice and sounds like a good spec. Reminds me of this picture :

Car looks great Mark and good to see another fellow irishman on the site! I really wish i'd chosen Xenons at my time of purchase cos i think they look fantastic. Welcome along mate :happy2:

Car looks well, sounds like a pretty extensive spec list!

Didnt realise there were so many of us folk from Ireland on here.
