Post by: hachi-roku on 05 July 2005, 22:29
G'day

just picked up my Mk2 golf GTi 8v (yes I know it's an 8v) but I actually really like it :)

Get ready for lots of n00b questions from me :)

Hey there,

It's just got some lowering springs on it ( very hard... ow! ) and some aftermarket alloys, which I am undecided if I like them or not.

overall, it's in really good condition, great engine and bodywork is fairly good... plus paid a good price for it  :wink:

It's got some amazing amp thingy in it, but I'm probably going to be gutting it out... so that'll be going , and HUUUUUGE sub... that'll be going as well :)

Cheers people :)

I really don't know if I like the rims though, they are some TSW jobby, but I'd prefer to have some BBS ones on there :)
