Hello my names danny and have just recently made the move from mk5 tdi golf to my beloved Gti  :smiley:     Its standard just now only thing ive changed is the silver badges to the red Gti badges and a matt black front badge. Would be good to get know other members from the tayside and angus area  :smiley:

Also pass Forfar pretty often.........
As for keeping clean, come on, surely black is next on the list after white for being cool with horizontal mud sprays!? (awaits detailing crowd to launch an attack....)  :pomppomp:
