Title: New GTI owner
Post by: burt2000 on July 31, 2013, 12:34:37 pm
Hey folks,

Just thought id say hello, My names Barry and i live in Belfast. Ive had a load of performance cars over the years from my 20's right through into my 30's with the most recent being a 400bhp Evo 8, but as a daily it was a bit too hardcore so i bought a MK5 GTI there a few weeks ago in Bedford.

Its a candy white 3 door DSG with low miles, 18" Monza's and fully loaded spec inc xenons :smiley:

Have to say im loving it as a daily and the DSG is great for the commute...plans are to fit the volant intake i got off another member and then go for either a revo or bluefin. I would like to go stage 2 with a decat downpipe at some stage when funds allow and then who knows what else down the line...K04 conversion maybe :evilgrin:

Ill get a few pics up of the car when the sun comes out :happy2:

cheers

Baz

Welcome Baz... I'd go for a Revo or possibly a custom tune from the likes of RTech.. the Stage 1 Bluefin is a bit timid under the curve. :happy2:
