Title: Some old pics of my GTI
Post by: Top Cat on January 01, 2014, 11:40:18 pm: I have been tidying up my photos on puter, came across these and thought i would reprocess them. I went a bit mad with aperture couldn't stop adjusting things but i think they look ok.
I haven't had a GTI for a few couple of years now but looking at the pics again, it is hard to deny the look and lines of the MK5 are lovely.

Post by: Top Cat on February 05, 2014, 09:45:05 pm: Alright pal how ya doing!. I don't really miss it Flora, I am to busy chasing round after my son and working. It would just sit in the garage collecting dust if I still had it. I miss all the good times from back then, the meets and the trips to the Nurburgring. :happy2:

Yeah we did have some laughs at the Ring, I'm sure we must be due another visit soon!?
How's the Exige going? Tucked up for the winter?

Post by: Top Cat on February 05, 2014, 10:02:48 pm: I am up for a trip over again this year. JPC is up for it too. I drove the Exige for the first time on Monday since October. :ashamed: it only comes alive on track it's no fun on the road for me.
I think I will contact PG and Nathan, see what they have planned for the Summer, I would like to include Spa in a trip as well. :driver:

If you haven't ever driven Spa, you MUST do it, TC!!

And especially as it's so easy for it to be en route either to or from the Ring. It's a no-brainer.
