    My Golf

    After selling my GT, went out and bought my 318is M3 rep and soon had to get rid because of insurance!
    Swapped it for this little number...

    2l 8v GTI, read the criticism and would love to drop a V6 or 1.8T engine but just not getting one at a price I'm willing to pay at the moment

    Here's how it was when I first picked it up:







    After a few days got her washed up and a nice polish and she came out like this (Also added the front GTI grill badge):







    HID kit and JOM Airblade fitted next:







    Got my MK5 GTI Monzas back from being being refurbed and sprayed which I would like to add are wearing £400 Pirelli tyres all round! :







    [IMG]Got my centre caps back from my pal who did the wheels and did another shot:[/IMG]





    To add things I haven't took pictures off:

    Pioneer interactive double din head unit (Didn't bother with interior as it's standard with Grey/Black recaros)

    Rear GTI spoiler (Will be proud of the back and take pictures next week when my coilovers are fitted, looks a bit high for my liking at the moment!)

    As mentioned the coilovers are waiting to be fitted so will update when they are on

    I know it's not a Punto but always wanted another since my last one..

    After a Punto project now as it's really reliable (Although not very fast) at the moment and need the speed!!

    I'll take some better ones when I can, the flash makes the pictures worse at night. That's why they're sh!te..

    What engine you got W8man?

    What you mean HIDs in reflector headlamps?

    I had a mk4... For about 2 months.

    But I only drove it once

    It was a black 5door with disgusting beige cloth interior.

    I couldn't stand being inside it, so it sat on my drive until I sold it.


    Then a year later I considered a 1.8 20v turbo, I had a test drive because I thought it maybe like the Seat or Audi, but it didn't really offer the power delivery I was expecting.
