just joined on here after purchasing my 06 candy GTI :smiley: i've taken the brave step of trading in my leon cupra R (I owned 3 in 2 years :rolleyes:) i'm totally blown away by the gti's build quality and suspension :drool: I'm looking into the morego option, possibly after new year :grin:

Hello and welcome to the fold! :wink:

Welcome Vagabond
I've just picked up an 06 plate in tornado red, and I'm also in Glasgow :cool:
If I see an 06 plate in candy white I'll be sure to give them a nod :wink:
-
Man (or woman) after my own hart Candy white and morego what a combination!

cheers guys, thought i'd take the car for a blast today as the sun was out, my first proper drive in dry weather :cool: Glasgow-lochl lomond-colintraive, caught the ferry to rothesay then rothesay ferry-wemyss bay and back home, superb empty roads in stunning scenerey :grin: The car was totally filthy at the end, naturally i have now restored it to it's gleaming white again. It's already had a coat of meguiars NXT and a coat of meguiars carnauba wax so the dirt just rinses off. Smashing :grin:

I'm from Fort William and so have driven the Loch Lomond road hunners of times on visits back North. I'm really looking forward to driving home for a few days at Christmas. :grin: :grin:

Lucky man, Lochaber is superb for driving, just watch for the cops! i got done a few months ago in ochil, driving at 58 mph in a 40. 8.30 on a saturday night, quiet roads and it was an unmarked car. That A82 is superb just need to keep an eye out :shocked:
-
very jealous...can't wait for my Candy White Edition 30 to arrive!
Maybe need to get a Scottish meet together sometime next year for all the GTI owners :)

Well not so lucky really - cos I stay in Glasgow, so not much country road driving for me these days. Still, it's good to visit the family. I have a feeling they'll be seeing quite a lot of me over the next wee while :wink: :smiley:

Sounds good. What sort of thing do people do on a meet? I'm not volunteering for a burn-out or anything :tongue:
-
could do anything...in the TT club, they often meet up to go for a drive over some decent roads and head off to a restaurant or something for a bite to eat, etc
a rolling road day at Star Performance , Kirkcaldy is usually popular as well!

Sounds good phobe, i'm up for a meet, i dont see many gti's where i live (yet). jim at star remapped a leon cupra R for me a while back, it went like sh!t off a shovel, he certainly knows his stuff :smiley:
