Title: Nice to be back on the Site
Post by: Mk5 GTian on April 01, 2014, 10:51:12 pm

Haven't been on the site for ages, really missed it, but NOT having a MK5 GTi in my life, it was too painful to visit!

I'm looking to buy my third Mk5 GTi in the next couple of months, so will be looking for a well maintained 55/06/56/07 plate, sunroofed example in Laser blue, Shadow blue, Candy White, or Tornado Red. If I find a stock one, I'll be sticking a Stage 1 map on it, but am not averse to buying a pre-modded example if known on here.

Mileage less important than condition and history (DV, cam follower, cambelt and water pump done etc)

 :happy2:

His main priority will be a sun roof over colour, especially as he nearly cut one into into 1st GTI lol

I am tempted yes :smiley:, but I'm expanding my business so can't tie up too much cash. I so miss my mk5's, can't wait to get back involved.
