Suffering from CMD Modititis eh? You've come to the right place, though you guys across the pond know a thing or two about the disease already  :laugh:

A Warm Welcome!

Thanks guys!

The moditis is strong with this one ;)

Right now she is a 2.5l NA.. I am hoping to find a CBBB and a 6 speed to go in her. (They dont sell 2 door mk5 diesel golf here with minimal features... edit they just started selling mk6 tdis).

Welcome! 2.5 litre? Is that petrol or diesel - we dont get that engine here if it is a 2.5!

Thanks!  It has the first factory Thunderbunny body kit on it sold by VWOA  I dont believe you guys have that option in the EU?

Its a 2.5l Petrol motor NA  :) someone wants it they are very reliable and can make 600whp boosted.  Ill trade for a good diesel CBBB motor ;)

Hello and welcome.

 :signLOL:

So they do sell it over there!.. Anyone have a picture of a UK Thunderbunny kit in the rear?  (I wonder to myself if they have the larger plates than USA Spec....) hmmm may need to order a spare  :drool:


And the car is a 2.5l 5cyl NA. It is what the new TT motor is build on minus the twin turbos and fuel injection system! Guys here in the states have 600whp coming out of these boosted.
