Title: Craig's TR 5 door GTI
Post by: craig_GTI on April 01, 2013, 04:49:51 pm
Alright peeps..

Iv had the GTI a good few months now and absolutly love it :) thought I'd start a members ride topic as I'm startin to do a few things now.

Iv already changed the DV, PCV, N75 valve and she's booked into the dealers this Wednesday for the coil pack recall :)

This are a couple of pics from the advert when I bought it.
