Just starting work on our annual GTI Special issue of Volkswagen Driver magazine, for publication before GTI International and I'm looking for a few Mk 6 GTI ( or R ) owners who'd like to write a firsthand report about their own GTI + supply a few good digital pics that we can make into a mini-article (or maybe even a major article..?)
Don't have to be radically modded or show cars, daily drivers are just as welcome :-)
For more info, please email me back asap with a bit of basic info about / sample pic of your car to: Neil.Birkitt@autometrix.co.uk
I look forward to hearing from you :-)

Mine's just a boring stock daily driver but it'd be rude not to........emailed you :smiley:
Btw I'm still waiting for my May issue of VW driver to arrive. Is it delayed? :rolleyes:

The May issue was out weeks ago. Maybe your subscription has run out? They don't always let us know when it's time to renew. Give Sally a ring.

No, in fact it's a recent new subscription and I got the April issue ok. I've subscribed to the online version for ages, but decided to also subscribe to the paper version as you get it earlier (usually) and I like to have the actual magazine. I have emailed already so expect it'll get send out soon. In the meantime I'll just read it electronically.

I would consider mine fairly tuned for a daily driver, and have a good knowledge of aftermarkets parts, just dont know if I could write a full review :huh:

Go for it Ross. Your mod update threads read fine so I'm sure you can pull together some text for this.
I did my write up this morning and now just sorting some pics.

I've done it a couple of times for my Mk2. It need only be a couple of hundred words with a few nice pictures, if that's all you want to do. What I would say is read it over and over again, then get someone else to read it before you send it.
I did one for Readers Rides when they started doing that feature, but got a bit carried away. I wrote over 6000 words, which Neil told me would fill 6 pages in text alone. :laugh:

I did it and I'm no author, it was great seeing my car in print even if it was my own offering.

totally agree and a real nice thing to keep when the car is long gone

As Andy says, it is worth doing it. I've put forward my R again as it has moved on a bit since last time. :cool:

Mine was featured last year :cool:
