Hi Guys & Gals
I don't have any pics yet...as I am currently looking for a Mk V GTI. But thought I would join the forum as it looks great (I have already learnt a lot from the Mk V section).
Am planning on joining the Golf Mk V club in the next month or so...can't wait, I love the Mk V Golf :happy2:
Thanks
Kalps
EDIT:
Time for an update!
I have picked my 2007 (56) Black GTI DSG 3 Door 27k miles with the following options:
18" Monza II alloy wheels
Cruise control
Multifunction steering wheel
Highline Computer
RCD 500 with front loading 6 CD changer
Rear parking sensors
Front centre armrest
Not sure if it has any other packs. Is there a way to check what a car left the factory with?
Mods:
Colour coded rear lower bumper
GTI Mats
Interior silver trim wrapped in carbon fibre
EDIT:
Finally Some Photos:
During the snow last week:

Excellent news. Now you won't forget the obligatory pictures, will you? :party:
As for factory options, below is a link to an options decoder. You need the series of codes by the PDI sticker in the book, or in the boot (under the carpet, by the tyre well), and type it all in. Will tell you what was factory-fitted.

Might have a slight problem. The seller emailed me this morning saying the ESP light has come on and wont go off :surprised:
He has booked it in with VW for Tuesday. I hope it gets sorted. I have read that the ABS controller might need to be replaced :scared:
I guess I am lucky it happened before I paid for it but still disappointing :sad1:
-
Just a quick update:
There was an issue with the ABS control unit, which VW replaced last Friday.
So I will finally be picking up the car this Saturday and can't wait :happy2:

Collected her last Saturday. What a car!!! The 140 mile journey back home was amazing :jumping:
The perfect :xmaspresent:
Now just need to avoid the modding section as the wallet took an instant diet pill :wink:

Good work, now we need to see some piccies! :tree:
