The new Gti

My new purchase. Ok, it's probably the worst Gti in the stable being 2.0 8v with a whoopingly unimpresive 115BHP, but it has heated black leather seats :). It needs the front wing repainted as it was scraped in a carpark, and not repaired immediately (hence mega good value)

Best of all, it's done 66,000 miles from new with FSH, interior is like new, unfortunately the outside isn't so perfect .. YET .. so basically this is my new cheap runabout :)

Looking for a set of these wheels :)

Image

BBS LM's and some shorter springs ...

or Rota Grids

Image

Interestingly, fake LM's with an unlowered car ..

It looks tidy apart from the rusty wing. Interestingly its the same o/s wing thats gone rusty on my brother-in-laws y reg silver golf.
The Lm`s would get my vote.:thumbs:

the mk4's suffer from the front wings rusting on the arch
it has started on our mk4 tdi and is the only place there is any

You're telling me, the test drive was like pushing gravel up a hill ... but then it's a runabout :)
