Hi my name is Pete and im from Stonehaven just outside Aberdeen in bonny Scotland!  i Bought a MK5 Gti on Friday and i absolutely love it! As you can see im not like the rest of you as its 'BoughtnotBuilt'

It has been remapped and i was told it was 250 bhp.  It has a R32 style exhaust aswell

Doesn't look as though i need to do any exterior mods but will be looking at engine mods.  Any Suggestions?

Comments welcome

Ok cheers for that, erm I'm not sure I was told by the garage when I bought it, the previous owner said it was mapped, will probably get a dyne run done.

Cheers for the comments. It's definitely not that colour now with the snow and rain up here!! I had a white fiesta ST but I had forgotten how hard white cars are to keep clean!!

First mod (done by myself!) done tonight, fitted a connects2 aux cable, took about 30 mins.

Very nice gti fella.  Looks good in white but a bitch to keep clean.  Same thing with a black one - forever cleaning it but well worth it.
