Title: too long....
Post by: davidfsmith on 23 September 2006, 20:03

Well my Smart Roadster just got sold (finally) and it is still 6 weeks until I get the replacement, my Golf GTi DSG with most of the options added on, until then I'm in a Focus TDI ....

really, can it take over 4 months to build a car ?

Still I'm hoping it will be worth it.

You dont know the half of it!!!

I have just got a nearly new (I let someone else do the boring running in for me  :wink: ) Golf GTI, with DSG (excellent choice, sir), Xenons, 18s, winter pack.

Luvvin every minute!!! If i had specced the car myself i would have got the highline comp (£45), Ipod or MP3, and the Multi0func wheel.

Just polished mine again, here are a few pics so you dont forget what a gti liiks like!!

Thats drastic action to take just to get away from a Focus... Is it really that bad you need to leave the country to get away from it??? LOL!!!

Typical, my car is now ready and I'm in SF until friday.... still should make for a good weekend.... think i might keep the temp focus though in case I don't like the GTi (or so I can leave it at LHR and keep the GTi somewhere safe next week whem I'm abroad again!)

Don't want a valet parking monkey killing my pride and joy when he is less than a week old.... just need to think of names for him / her now ;-)
