hello all,
well as i been on here for a few days now, i have been looking around at everyones mk5, im getting ideas in my head! not a good thing as its going to cost even more, so here is alittle about the car,
bought it from vw in huddersfield price £10,000, with 5 years free servicers and MOT with parts n labour, TOP DEAL!
its a standard mk5 GT TDI with clasick alloys 17" with brand new tyres, will with coloured bands around, the car has lots of miles as it was owned my the garage for a dealers show car! came with soooo much paper work! lol. it came with the black front gill but its chaned to silver now as it looks better. interia, has full leather seats, front heated, read windows tinted,
this is day day i got it, i took it home and swapped the front grill over. im not looking for a short number plate as im not over keen on the long number plate on it.

Just because you bought them from Dubmeister does not mean they are legal. they dont even look close to being legal font. :happy2:
