Title: Soon to be owner in Kent
Post by: GarethB on July 25, 2011, 07:07:07 pm

Hi all,

Been lurking for a while, but thought that since I'm collecting my golf on Saturday, I thought that I should get involved.

It's an 07 plate 3dr steel grey GTI, that I'll be hoping to mod gradually over time  :smiley:

Cheers

Gareth

A few issues still to sort out with the dealer, but so far it is good to be back in a TFSI after a 2 year spell with a Fabia vRS

Now to start improving her  :evilgrin:
