Title: Howdy!
Post by: S800BRN on August 24, 2010, 11:32:30 pm: Hi all. Picked up my GTI last time home. Spec as Follows: DSG, Full Leather, Sunroof, 19" Omanyts, ED30 front and rear valances and only 19k on the clock! So far just stuck on my own plate and R32/Ed30 rear lights.

Not too much planned in the way of mods, prob a drop and maybe change the wheels?

Comments welcome.

Cheers for the welcome. I never intended buying an 05 but with the mileage and spec and condition I couldn't walk away from it!
Had a 56 BMP GT 140 previously.

I don't thinkn these are VW mudflaps - the previous owner must've fitted them. They lok to be just screwed in which isn't the best. Chances are I'll take them off when it gets lowered.
