Title: cornish 16v newbie
Post by: blighty on 23 March 2009, 11:25

hi all, obviously im new here. used to have a mk2 jetta which i done a few bits to, which we then sold for a so called family car, but it was soo boring i decided i'd had enough and sold it. and got offered an early mk2 golf gti 16 for fairly cheap (in my opinion) so took my friend up on the offer of the golf. which brings me to this forum :) got a few mods planned, more styling than power increase than anything as its fast enough for now :)

will post some photos etc up in the correct area of the forum.

cheers
steve

You need to contact JV to create a project thread. You need 10 posts before you can use PMs though.

Yeah, a few from Cornwall on here. Where are you abouts?

i have a wife and daughter, and apparently volksfest is more aimed at the families, hence me going there for at least one day :)
