Title: Hello!
Post by: Manu_R32 on February 14, 2009, 03:23:22 pm
Hello every one! Can see a lot of familiar user names to golfgtiforum.co.uk!

Im 20 years old from Gibraltar studying in Cardiff so dont really get to see my car much but ofcourse I try and make the most of it when im home!

First car was a Clio Sport 172, Second car was a MK5 GTI where I met most people on golfgtiforum.co.uk and im now a proud owner of an MK5 R32!  :happy2:

Current mods - OSIR front splitter, OSIR rear Diffuser, JL Audio 400/4 Amplifier, JL Audio Cleansweep running with the RNS 510 and JL Audio ZR650s! Also have a pair of sweet carbon fibre badges for the front and rear but i have no idea how to change them! If any one could help me there, i would much appreciate it!

Anyway, here are some pics!  :smiley:

Some things i would like to do in the future are, Miltek Exhaust (Hopefully by summer), JL Audio Stealthbox and possibly an EVOM's Air Intake or if i can stretch it a GruppeM!  :evilgrin:

Thanks for looking and look forward to comments!  :smiley:

Hello VC, was looking at your post of your R32 and must say it is nice! Was just wondering how much the EVOM's intake set you back and if you have any pics??  :smiley:

Thanks for the welcome guys! Greenhouse sent me a pm a while ago telling me to join but did not realise how many of you had moved over! Have not been posting much as I dont really see my car every day so dont have new questions. Do give a peak every now and then but thats about it! Abit random but im not too sure on how insurance in the UK works and im looking to buy a Mini Cooper S for my second year at uni and was just wondering if £4,100 sounds about right for a 20 year old student to be paying for insurance?? Personally think its a bit too much but iv never insured a car in the UK so...some advice on good insurer's could be good!  :smiley:

Thanks!
