Evening all from Cardiff.
Been looking around the site for a while so thought time to say hello.
Picked up my Edition 30 end of last year and steadily been making it how i like it. But as a standard car its been fantastic. :grin: took a little searching for the right one but eventually this 3 door 44K on previous owner turned up in my local VW of all places.
Wit no longer needing a car for work and moving closer to work i thought it was time to swap out my Ibiza FRtdi for the edition 30! the old Ibiza was running a healthy 185bhp and 340 ft/lb with plenty of upgrades and a nice tarox 6pot conversion but after the test drive in the Gti i knew it was the right move.
The day i picked it up had the Neuspeed P flow fitted the next day with full service and belt change runs perfectly :happy2:
since then a Milltek non res cat back and a few choice carbon fibre parts, engine cover etc.
Booked in later this month for APR Stage 2. Millket DP, R32 Front brake upgrade and KW V3 coilovers :smiley:
soon i remember the old photobucket account details ill try and get some pics up.
thanks
Rhys
