Title: Newbie from Plymouth!!
Post by: bodgeandlegit on 12 April 2009, 17:40: Hi all :grin:

I`ve been asking questions on this site for a week or so now and missed out the intro bit....doh!!

I`m Kevin, I`m on my second mk3 golf now, I had a 1992 8V GTI which I loved, and then I was offered more than I paid for it by a mate (who killed it after 6 months :cry:), so it was bye bye 8V. Then 18 months ago I bought my current Golf, a gleaming (62K) VR6 which was tastfully "tweeked" by the last owner and it`s my baby!! :wink:

Will try and get some pictures uploaded when I have time

Anybody else from Plymouth??
