Title: Back in a Golf
Post by: gixerben on March 04, 2014, 06:06:58 pm

Hi guys/gals

After a short absence to a Honda S2000, I'm back in the Golfs. After a series of MK2's and a MK4+ Corrado and S-line A4 Avant I'm now the proud owner of a Black Magic Pirelli Edition.
So far I love it and look forward to moding her a little and just driving it.

Looks like a top forum with plenty of good guys with lots of info.

Thanks

Lovely motor mate, thats the only thing I miss. The A4 was Quattro and grippped well the S2000 being RWD was a hoot but a bloody handfull in the wet and the Pirelli breaks grip like a dog on lino, but still a great car and I enjoy having a few more mod cons over the Honda plus its a little easier to live with day to day.

You got a thread on your Pirelli I could have a read of?

I did have one somewhere but it may have been deleted now as I've had the R a year now!
