So It Begins!!!
[/size]
After having the driver for about 9 months and me having nothink but trouble with the bastid thing, i decided to go on the hunt for an 8v, i was looking for about 3 weeks and found 1 on Autotrader which was only 17 miles away so i thought id go and have a look not expecting much.
The Day came, i drove up to Handcross where it was, and pulled up and saw it for the first time i fell in love instantly :embarassed: here is a pic the second i saw it,
i walked over to it and saw the paint and it looked sooo LUSH!!!, i looked around it for a while taking it all in and checking for rust etc there was NONE to be seen i knew it was the one!!. The car had 12 months MOT, 5 months tax, new service, lowered 40mm, brand new GTi standard exhaust. amongst other little things,
Extras included, Power Steering, Heated and Electric door mirrors, electric windows, immobilser, central locking all these little things just topped it off for me.
I handed the deposit over and told him i would be there on saturday morning befour the england game to pick it up.
Saturday Morning came round, me and my dad drove up there at 10 in the morning handed over the cash signed the documents and finally i was a proud owner of a GTi.
The time came for me to drive it home along all the twisty country roads and i couldnt wait. i took it easy to start with and then when i got used to it i put my foot down and i was loving it, compared to the Driver it was HEAVEN!!!
Here are a few pics when i arrived home.
I was a very happy chappy!!!!!
Plans for the near future,
Im planning on getting my Azev A's refurbed at the end of this month they are in a bit of a sorry state at the momento, im also contemplating getting a full Milltek exhaust in a months time. im going to get a subtle stereo fitted im thinking 1 12" sub built into the side of the boot with 2 amps 1 powereing sub and other powering the speakers i dont want to go mental with it i just want it understated.
Well for the moment that is about it, stay tuned.
