Bloody hell a lot of young whipper snappers on 'ere.

Definitely in the old f4rt category myself then at 43, mentally a lot younger, physically a lot older I'd guess.

Some of you lads have had some smart motors at a young age, very impressive.

*cough*

I thought I'd wait before making my entrance.........

(https://www.mk5golfgti.co.uk/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fdaz.co%2Fmedia%2FRedRobin_05%2FRED_INK%2FRR_GodisBusy.jpg&hash=7b2a96dcbc06450990e8ea8c60634c85ff4013d2)

I've been roaming this planet for a long long year
Stole many a man's soul and faith
Pleased to meet you
Hope you guess my name
But what's puzzling you
Is the nature of my game

God used to have a Mk1 GTI but I've had my Mk5 for 6 years and have no plans to move on.

So, I think you will have all realised that I'm a tad older in years than most of you guys n gals. But, as the saying goes: I don't mind growing old, just as long as I don't have to grow up. <-- There's no danger of that happening! I'm 64.

35 years old had the gti for 2 years, excellent car! :happy2: new to the vw brand bit of a ford man before series 1 rs turbo and series 2, mondeo st200. would only replace the golf with mk6 gti but only when they drop a bit more in price.

32, very nearly 33!

Had too many performance cars to remember. A Celica VVTLi 190 and my Scooby Spec B stand out as being high points. Oh, and my S2000.  Quite a few low points also!

This is my first GTI though and I love it.
