Title: HELP! Cant stop smiling.
Post by: boyceuk on November 17, 2012, 09:16:24 am
So I finally made it into the exclusive clue of GTi owners. Picked this up on Friday and can't wipe the grin off my face;

(those photos are just from the ebay ad, I will get some better ones up soon)


2006, 37k miles, FSH, Pearl Graphite Blue

The whole car is in immaculate condition. The leather feels fresh and new, the wheels dont have a single mark or tarnish on them, 1 previous owner that really looked after it, perfect longlife service history - even had cambelt done early cause he was going on a 'long drive'.

Its currently got an RCD300 CD player and parrot for phone connection. As I got it for a good price I'm thinking of treating it to a sat nav upgrade and change the bee sting for a shark fin... To the audio forum section.

A GTI can have this effect every time you drive it!

Welcome :smiley:

Pity about the collision with the tea towel - hope you're ok.

Welcome on board!  :drinking:

Is a lovely colour that, looks like a beauty.

Loving the Tea Towel, is this to prevent speed cameras getting you or are you trying to get away without paying for fuel?  :signLOL:

Seller told me it was an optional extra, Stealth Pack.

Thanks for all the welcomes. I keep finding excuses to pop out for a quick drive.
