Title: New Member from Scotland non GTi i'm afraid!
Post by: S66_OTP on November 30, 2011, 10:40:58 am: Hi folks,

Been on the site for a while as I was previously looking to buy a GTi when I was selling my EP3 Civic Type R, ended up getting a good lease deal for an Astra VXR. Enjoyed it for a while but was very expensive to run & the market value was on a downward spiral so decided to go sensible & bought this last month:

Spec includes:

2008 VW Golf GT Sport 2.0 TDi 170 in Reflex Silver
FVWSH, 38,500, 1 owner from new (ex contract hire car therefore has wanted for nothing)
Full heated leather, Convenience Pack, Xenons with Headlight washers

Anyway so far loving the car & finally being part of the VAG group. Hope you don't dis-approve of my wee diesel on the site :ashamed:

Scott
