Hello all,
had the car since Feb and never really got round to introducing myself! maybe its because I love the car so much I just don't want to get out of it lol :driver:
Its got a few options like headlight washers, heated seats, chilled glovebox, highline computer and MFSW. A week after I got it the rear badge decided to stop working so I replaced it with a mk6 handle and had the wheels done in VW grey. :happy2:
Always kind of been a big VW fan however I have a soft spot for the older French hot hatches as well, in the space of my 7 years driving I have had a mk1 GTi, Mk3 VR6, MK4 20Vt, MK4 PD130 and now the Edition 30 along with a few Clio sports and 205 Gti. My last car was a 197 F1 Edition, a brilliant car but it only lasted 6 month before I wanted to be back in something that did not feel like it was been shook to death at 70 Mph haha. the French cars are ok for a bit but I did get a bit fed up of them constantly needing a repair!
Got some plans for the Golf in the next few months, certainly wanting to upgrade the radio but I'm unsure if I want to go for RCD/RNS or go aftermarket like a Pioneer or Kenwood Dnx? Also want to visit R-Tech for a remap as I think it would be awesome once its done.
Here are a few pics I've took with the iPhone (I hope they work, never done this before)

Absolutely! first thing I really need to do is get the bonnet sprayed, its covered in stone chips but the main things I really want to do is a cat back milltek, cai and a Remap along with a new radio, really miss the Bluetooth I used to have.
