Title: New owner... well, nearly
Post by: ianjmclean on May 08, 2010, 02:48:20 pm: Hi all

Laid down deposit on a 5dr GTI today in Blue Graphite, collect it on Friday.

Fell in love with the colour, reminded me of a mates old Helios Mk2 GTI, and was great on the test drive. First venture into VW ownership, although used to own a Leon TDi FR.

Look forward to sharing some experiences and photos on here.

Cheers
Ian

Nice colour as well. I haven't seen many of them on the road - probably rarer then the white IMO!

Each time I look out the window I smile. Each time I drive it the smile becomes an inane laugh!! :laugh:

Pics up shortly, once i've cleaned it. Already gleaned no end of info from the boards, so thanks.
