Title: GTI power for life!!
Post by: willharrisbill on June 11, 2012, 08:49:33 am
Hello everybody! Nothing special to say but I think that this this forum is one of the best! I just want to say that I hope I enjoy it and if it's possible, be useful! Now I am living in Spain but I've been living in UK during the past 2 years... I bought a GTI about 2 months ago, and I'm very happy with it!

Welcome. Looks like your car is modded already? How does the Spanish spec differ from uk?

Wow, fast reply!  :happy2: thanks!

Yes I searched during 3 or 4 months a gti a little bit modded, at least with some great wheels, and I found a great deal. I paid 13000 € ( about 10 500 BP) for it, I only had to paint the back bumper just for stetic.. Right now I want to change the wheels, cos these S5 are a replica, and maybe a BBS CH Black would be btter (in all aspects  :evilgrin:). I've seen these forum has a greaat market and a lot of info about gti!  :congrats:

And well, the big difference, as u know, is almost everything   :laugh: it's a little bit crazy when u are used to drive on the right  :rolleye: but it's only about 4 days, thats it. I had a renting car in London..

Have a look at this one matey....  :drool:

One of the best looking GTI's ever IMO, but with silver BBS CH'S  :notworthy:

It's all about the stance!!!

Good thing is...it looks like yours could be already lowered :happy2:
