Title: Mk5 GTi
Post by: lee_ on May 29, 2011, 07:05:15 pm

Hi,

I'm new to the forum, just rejoined the VW world with a Mk5 GTi.

(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2Fcars%2FMk5_Golf%2FIMG_0366.jpg&hash=173002eade20405aca8f745c715064f6cfd30ca5)

Bit of a petrol head at heart, had a few VWs before including a Lupo GTi and loads of motorbikes!

And all along had the weekend toy - the '71 Beetle 'Agatha'

So far only plans are to get the geometry sorted and see if we can sweeten up the handling a little, last car was a Honda S2000 so the golf feels
a little numb in comparison at the minute. Then maybe a pipe and map but we'll see how it goes.

Used to be on Club Lupo so may recognise me from there or even the local area - Burton on Trent, Staffordshire? :P
