Got another gti last night....Pics added!!!!
« on: 28 October 2010, 10:21 »
Well i got my hands on a gti last night for cheap money,It has a few faults but for the money with t&t till march i guess i cant grumble lol.My main worry is now what to do with it lol,I bought it on a whim as i spotted it on retro rides for £200 and thought"im havin that" So i aftre a 160 mile round trip and got it and happily it got me back fine.

Faults are gearbox crunch on 3rd gear and windscreen is cracked
Oh and the heater doesnt work either

Plus points
Tax and mot till march
vento front end
E36 leather front seats
Toledo cup holder which could be made to fit better
bonnet struts
lowered (alot)
sliver clocks
smoked front fogs (my wifes golf now wears these lol)
vr6 alloys with good tyres
New exhaust
leather steering wheel

Ill get some pics on in a min


Now do i fix it sell it or break for parts

The bonnet is matt black although the car is dusty mauve.I was a bit pissed coz i thought it was mystic blue and i was going to swap the fronts over to my wifes.Im thinking breaking it and cashing the tax in is the way forward so if anyone wants any parts just ask.

The mrs does moan about how many cars i own but it goes in one side and out the other lol.Ill be a few less soon as i think i have sold the fiesta(dont ask) and my estate is up for grabs atm but i think im going to have to put some alloys on it to help it on its way
