I used to drool over the MK4 GTI. Was going to buy an anniversary one. Until I saw the light and about a MK5 GTI! :grin:
Seriously, they do look nice IMO.
-
Looks great fella :happy2: :happy2: Ive always had a soft spot for the Anni how much did it set you back?
Looks like it could do with a good detail though :wink:
-
cant beat a nice 25th anni, the build quality was so much better on the mk4 :smiley:
-
Indeed I still really like the Mk4 Anni's, have an element of class even today, especially as now they're rarer.
I remember when I was looking for my GTI last summer (June 2009) and AutoTrader only displayed 7 Mk4 Annis for sale throughout the whole of the UK at times - bit of exclusivity there.
So the R32 went in the end Chris? Shame :/
-
Looks great fella :happy2: :happy2: Ive always had a soft spot for the Anni how much did it set you back?

It will be having one soon, I do it for a living so when I get time ill spend the weekend giving the paint a good going over :happy2:
-
Nice looking motor , be sure to fire lots of post detailing pics up after its done! :happy2:
-
oh man, a dark blue Mk4 R32, if you dont mind how much did it go for, I have one on my list.
-
Sold the R32 for £6100
-
Loving the red Anni, very hard to get a clean red one at the minute. a matre of mine has been looking for ages with no luck. I'd a Diesel Anni a year back and loved it, great car and so will kitted compaired to any other Mk4 in the range.
-
Had a look on Piston heads & there are only 2 Petrol ones listed for sale
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/1989761.htm
http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2013331.htm
The second one is low miles but the first one is about 600 miles less than mine
-
Chris,
not completely original, different CD player, looks like the single slot and shame its not got the original steering wheel.
Red's are getting increasing hard to find.
-
there is a 2dr indeglo blue r32 for sale in fife in scotland spoted it on the road to standrews on sunday
-
looks a nice original one, I do like red anni's. :happy2:

Replaced the CD Player with the 6 disc one last night, If I can find a mint steering wheel then I might be tempted to change it, But on another note
Had the wheels done Today

Nope youve totally lost me there - cant see the difference.

Nope youve totally lost me there - cant see the difference.
+1 :ashamed:
-
Its the smaller VW Logo off a Sharan :wink:
-
Aww i see it now, lol i thought for a moment i need to go to spec savers.. :)
-
Not a big visual thing but it does tidy the rear end up a little, They are normally split & the Black backing bit colour coded, But I thought it would look a bit much done in Red
-
In red would look dead smart Chris.
I've got a photo of a Steel Grey one at home where the rear VW badge is coded into Grey - looks dead smart.
I'll upload it when I'm home.
-
I did it on my last silver MK4, Split the VW part from the black backing & then sprayed the Black bit silver but left the logo part in chrome, Looked really good
-
This is the look I might go for Chris :smiley:

Mine was on my old mk4

That one on the MK5 looks really good though :happy2:
-
Nice to see your old Mk4 too :happy2:
That silver badge does look good.
Have you been tempted with doing the red anni's rear Sharan badge black? I think that would look extremely tidy too :smiley:
I've thought about wrapping mine but haven't got round to it yet :chicken:
-
That MK4 was another I spent a small fortune on then sold it, Did exactly the same with my Black MK4 GT TDi after fitting R32 front & R-line rear bumpers
I was going to do the badge on the anni the same but think it may look too much in Red,
-
Had another little thing to Add to it this weekend

Took about 70 pics on the day
-
Very tidy Chris :happy2:
Did I see rightly that you're selling a CW R32 5door? Looked stunning and very rare!
You seem to pull Golfs out of thin air :evilgrin: Are you a VW dealer of some classification? :smiley:
-
I was selling it the other month, Had it advertised for 2 days & then it sold.
Not a VW dealer, Just enjoy them & if I get offered one for the right price then ill buy it.
Bought a Jap spec front rubstrip insert for the car the other day, Should hopefully be fitted Tommorow, Just got to find a reg plate thats 12" Wide!
-
Got the Jap spec front rub strip painted & fitted the other day, Had to get a square front plate for it as the recess is only 330mm wide

Wasnt too keen on the overall look though so I ordered a small plate
