Hi Guys,
So had a few cars.
Corsa C
BMW 330Ci
Ibiza Bocanegra (Current Car)
I'm looking at a GTi Mk5 (Obviously)
The car is Grey, Has Ed30 Front and rear bumpers
Also the numberplate is private! Don't know if anybody would recognise it off here at all.

I'll show you the car, Can you give me your thoughts on it,
Essential upgrades and costs and where to buy?
What it has as extra's
What it should have and doesnt?
I like the idea of Factory Sat nav, is it an easy retro fit, again how much and where from?
Are Xenons an easy Retrofit? Again how much and where from?
Sorry, but I'm literally a n00b.
Thanks for any help you can provide!

The car still has the standard chin spoiler and not an edition 30 spoiler. it doesn't have an ed30 rear bumper either.
Thats a very low spec car. Doesn't have any extras to it. I would look for something with 18's , xenons, maybe try a DSG car if you haven't already.

17's not the 18's
Poverty spec inside no extras.
The rear is a r32 lower bumper with a different valence.
The front is just a gti front with colour coded splitter
Colour coded side skirts.
I'd look elsewhere as to me 9k is a lot for a car with no extras

Steve beat me to it. Great minds think alike :grin:

Hi guys, I don't want to burden you. But do you think you could find me something which is fairly decent for around the same money?
I was struggling.
I'd ideally want Xenons, and MFSW
Thanks for your help though! Really really apprecate it

Just keep searching piston heads, ebay. Autotrader and on here until you find one you like. Satnav is a pretty easy retrofit as it mfsw - more so if you get a dsg. Xenons on the other hand are not so easy so if you want them I would buy a car with them already - would cost £500 ish to retrofit plus the skills.
Bits like cruise, armrest etc are easy to get done so wouldn't worry as much about those. 17s or 18s is a personal choice an again easy to change :happy2:
