Hi,
Here is my pride and joy, It had huge spec from factory every possible option apart from tinted windows I think, I have added R32 side Skirts, GTI rear valance, GTI steering, R32 rear lights, I removed the MFD2 Sat nav from factory and replaced with RNS510, also removed the nokia handsfree module and replaced with 1Z0035729B Bluetooth module.
All I plan to do it now is remove the nokia thing on the dash and change glove box and Tint the rear windows to factory tint.

looking excellent,bet he was cold doing them outside :signLOL:

Just out of interest where did you pick the steering wheel up from?
-
^ +1
Just noticed the steering wheel too Brooko :drool:
So you've slammed it already? :congrats: Looks absolutely dashhhhing.
The Charlestons now look like fat 19"s in that last pic! :happy2:
Very keen on this. May delve into a similar derv' myself in the next few years.
-
The steering wheel someone was breaking a GTI in brum its actually got the paddles and mine is a manual which was a shame but I dont really mind them being there hardly notice them...
The wheels do look bigger In that photo it looks like I have lowered it but I havent... Tempted though when I look at that pic... although I had said to myself that the windows was my last mod need to start saving the pennies towards a white scirocco although I love the golf that much I dont know If I could sell it!
-
where abouts are you and where did you get your windows tinted? they look ace
-
Thanks, Im In West Heath - Birmingham, the bloke who did my windows is a friend of my dads he's very good few of the dealerships use him when people by 2nd hand motors from them but want the windows tinted he's in Shirley, are you local to Birmingham?

Not lowered - seriously?
You must of had something heavy in your boot/back seats then fella? That wheel arch gap isn't natural of an empty factory car! :grin: Looks good though.
Good find with the wheel. It's always been at the back of my mind to look for one but every time i do, they're few and far between to say the least.
Another Rocco convert on the cards? Hmmm... :wink:
Is it the TDI engine you're after in the Roc?
-
Not lowered and nothing in the boot or the back I think it must just have been the way it was parked.... or maybe he had sumat heavy in the boot when he was tinting the windows because i had just reversed it out of his garage when i took the pic..
Yea it took me a while to find the wheel.. few on ebay but they fetch silly money some of them
Yea maybe I love the golf's though I can see myself prob getting a Rocco for a bit and then changing that after a while to a mk6 GTD... :wink:
But not until at least the summer will I think of changing this one I just love the spec on it!
Yea the TDI it would have to be
Have you got a Golf?
-
Car is nice mate .........dont suppose your intrested in selling im in Moseley

You're lucky with the OEM stance :happy2:
The OEM GTI FBMFSW do go for silly cash, plus I don't see them often.
I've got a GTI indeed, I think you caught up with pics on my build thread mate :smiley: I've a good friend who's got an EP3 CTR but wants to make the jump to the TDI Rocco shortly.
Why do you have so many quick changes planned - don't you keep your cars long? :evilgrin:
I'll keep mine for at least 3.5 years of ownership I expect (18 months in so far :love: )

Thanks Modz... Im not planning on selling it to be honest if I was made an offer that I felt I couldnt refuse then I would sell it...
Yea Pete after I asked if you had a golf I looked through the threads and found yours it's very nice mate! :congrats:
I don't know because I love the car to bits but then I see the Rocco and want one and then I see the MK6 GTD and know that I want that 2 so I know after the Rocco ill get one of them :signLOL:
Is yours the finished project now mate or you still got plans for it? I love the colour when I bought mine it was only ever be my colour or your grey!
-
Thanks again dude :happy2:
I was the same as you really - had to be black or grey :surprised:
If I was you I'd aim for the Rocco - that's purely because I don't really like the MK6's but am slowly warming to the GTI's and the .:R20.
I don't like the wheels are some of the touches on the GTD but some minor modding could address my gripes with the Mk6. I still genuinely think the MK5 is a better looking car overall.
Mines nearly finished - I'm about 2 major mods and 3 minor mods from being there. By summer, it'll be running as completed by my own little standards
What about you? Looks like you're keen to do some more... before selling :smiley: :signLOL:
