Title: Buying my dream car!
Post by: GW-GTi-8v on 28 November 2012, 20:47

At 40yo, final buying my dream car at the weekend. Is it an Aston, Ferrari or even a Range Rover? Nope it's a 97 2.0 Gti 8v 3dr. No mods and all original. Needs some tyres and £150-200 in the workshop then off I go.

Any VW or Gti owners clubs in the North East anybody can recommend?

Cheers

Congrats on your new purchase dude. Hope that £150-200 does get it all ship shape.

So do I.  :smiley:

No doubt that 150-200 will turn out to be a bit more. Going into the shop for the once over at the weekend so fingers crossed.

Hi,

Needing some small scuffs sorting and a poor door paint job from years gone by doing on the mk3.

Anybody recommend a good paint shop in the North East?

Cheers
