Hi all from sunny staffordshire !
« on: 19 June 2011, 08:56 »
Well i say sunny probably best described as daylight -ish ? Anyway just bought a vw mk3 gti 8v from the local auctions , owned a mk2 gti many moons ago and really enjoyed it , but then came kids etc etc etc and it had to go  :cry:
However mk3 gti come thru local auctions and altho it had dog hair assisted seats and at best satin black paint it was totally standard and straight with 12 months mot 5 months tax .........i won it for the hefty price of £350 + £18 auction fee !
Not really sure if thats a bargain or not and initially i bought it to clean up and sell on , but the drive home and a days cleaning changed all that and now decided as it was hopefully a bargain and certainly not expensive i am now once again a golf gti owner i would post some pics but not a clue how to do it being a technophobe .
anyway ....
let the mods begin !
