Title: Another Swindon newbie!
Post by: Deedub on March 20, 2011, 03:41:54 pm
My names Dan from Swindon, Friend of Creatz here on the forum. Previous car was a 2003 Mini Cooper S (for sale if anyone is interested  :wink:)

My first ever VW, loving it so far after picking it up Saturday from B3n here on the forum (sorry again B3n!)

This things a beast  :evilgrin:  :jumping:

Spotless interior, loving the leather and heated seats, main option i was looking for for the GTI
