Hi all

Looking at purchasing a MK5 GTI, currently own a 06 Civic Diesel but wanting to go back to petrol soon  :happy2:

Will be searching the forum for info on a remap, uprated panel filter and miltek cat back exhaust resonated system. Ideally may purchase a car with these on but dont mind budgeting for this.

Come from a long list of performance cars, was debating the newer R32 or the GTI but think ill get more for my money (up to 13k) if i go GTI way and i found my older shape one quite heavy although loved the noise.

Honda Civic '06 CDTI - Subaru Impreza '03 STi PPP - VW Golf '02 R32 - Ford Focus '06 ST - Honda Civic '03 Type-R - Honda Integra '01 Type-R DC5 - Honda Accord '99 Type-R - VW Golf '98 1.6SE - Honda Prelude '94 2.2vtec - VW Golf MK1 1.1  :drinking:

welcome jim, nice list of motors  :happy2:

good luck with the search. cant go wrong with the MK5, for 13k you should be able to find a nice one couple of years old and have some change for bits, make sure you dont get too sucked in to modding though as is a dangerous disease that most of us round here have contracted!   :laugh:
