Title: A hello from the other side
Post by: TimJK on March 04, 2012, 12:51:15 pm

Hello all,

Thought id post up, not exactly a vw owner but still vag.

I drive an Audi s3 and bought an itg off the forum so figured id say hi.

Here are some pictures of my car.

It's a 2008 solar orange s3 and I bloody love it.

Been in the vag scene for a while now, owned a seat Leon Cupra r prior to this running 275bhp and worked at Audi for 5 years now.

Here's a pic of the Leon.

Nooo I like the silver mirrors, had my front grilles and splitter bit, the rear diffuser and b pillar trims painted gloss black, that's enough for me :)

Always nice to see a golf in a fur coat  :P

Seriously tho nice car, not sure on the colour, might be a tad loud for me  :happy2:

My next car will be either the aforementioned golf in a fur coat or the Golf R  :happy2:

Latest picture of mine. Just had some spray work due to a scratch on the bonnet and a flake on the door. Also decided to get the grille done black.
