Title: hi from jockland
Post by: jockgti on 31 January 2011, 20:52

hi,just bought a mk4 gti ,totally lovin it so far,few things to do but wont be going silly with the mods,mains areas are some bodywork issues and a wheel refurb, a good clean inside,try find a vw first aid box and warning triangle for boot,some little things like aero blades,black vw badges,need some locking nuts,dust caps,depending after interior clean might need new mats and find a grommet for dewipering rear,remove badly fitted tints.

quick question i've seen people talking about there engines  like aug 120ps what's that about and how do i find out mine?
also my car has a rabbit looking thing beside gti on boot whats that about?

The golf in the USA was called a rabbit up to the mk5 I believe.. some people think it's cool to badge their UK car up as one.
