Post by: AlexHxC on November 08, 2012, 06:05:20 pm

recently bought a mk5 GT 170 as a daily as i've not long started a job that requires a lot of travelling and petrol on my other car was killing me.

The other car is this (avert your eyes if your sensitive to jap tin)

Welcome on board!  :drinking:

Like that Datsun, mate of mine had one (same or similar) YEARS ago, good car.

As for the GT......  :notworthy: she's lovely, nice ride height as well and not seen a lot of BBS RK's (if any) on a Mk5, are they 112 pattern or are you running adaptors/wobble bolts? Not a fan of black wheels on black cars but looks really good on yours.
