Title: Just got my Mk2 Golf GTi today...... first waterpumper in a while....
Post by: [steve] on 30 May 2009, 20:00: So, I've been into the dub scene for a good few years, had a few beetles, a type 3 and currently have a bay camper that I have restored over the past couple of years.

Swapped my Fastback for my Golf this morning and I LOVE it already!!! :evil: :laugh: :evil:

It's a 1990, I guess it has Power Steering and feels like it has ABS... It's a 5 door as I have a littleun.

A couple of pics.....

Only got it this morning and have fitted my iPod Kenwood head unit and Infinity Reference speakers to the parcel shelf, gave it a clean and a polish....

Have some BBS alloys as spares as not too sure on the stretched tyres..... but the teledials look sweeeet IMO...

So I'm here... Hello!!!

Steve.

Post by: [steve] on 02 June 2009, 10:17: Thanks guys, I'm very chuffed with the car, part exchanged my slammed old VW Fastback for it (1971) and got the golf, plus the cash to insure it for a year, a set of BBS RA's (in need of a light refurb) with good tyres and a 4 branch manifold...
