Hi Steve. It was me!!!
Just coming back from taking the wife to the hospital. Nice to see another forum member out on the road. But the wife then preceded to mock me for being sad and waving to " my golf friends".

Patronising cow...

Yep she said it just like that too.  :stupid:

Slight confession Steve, it's not an eddy. I must admit it is starting to look one but i couldn't help myself, the bbs wheels where a bargain!
I must say though yours was looking very tidy. Red is one of the best colours though. :wink:

Cheers for the compliments, she's not been washed for a month nearly so it's normally pristine  :ashamed:, but due to a recent slipped disc, I'm only just back on my feet.


Red is the best colour and always from birth it is was given its name Tornado so that says it all.

Will keep my eyes peeled again if your in the area, or if you need anything to do with VCDS , I have the tools  :wink:

I must admit I haven't cleaned mine for the last 3 weeks and its filthy.
I am from the locks Heath area so I'm sure we will cross paths again soon.

Also many thanks for the offer may tap you for some coding if I need it.

Are there any local meets that you know of?

Also spotted you a few weeks back in the hedge end area and performed a "ooooo gti friend" stare to try and see if I could recognise some features. I'm live in Whitley so may see you often!

I think it may have been wilmott, was heading up through the roundabouts behind m&s towards Currys and I was coming the other way

Most likely was me as i work just up the road. The easiest way to spot me is to look at the nutter frantically waving inside the car. :jumping:

I am currently driving a black mk2 golf on white g60 steelies at the moment so if you me about in that still give us a wave. :happy2:
