Hi Guys - Long time lurker, first time poster! :smiley:
Bagged myself a 05 GTi a few weeks ago from Wigan VW... thought I'd share it.
I believe (from reading on here) they stopped producing Laser Blue some time ago. Wondered why I've still not seen another one on the road!
Been waiting for a break in the weather to get out and give her a bloody good Autoglym-ing, which I did yesterday.

Absolutely love the thing! Coming from a 1.6 Focus, its a bit of a change!

Just lovely mate - love that colour, especially in the 3 door :drool:

Hi etch, well what can i say , welcome to the elite owners club of the Lazer Blue pearl, i thought for a second it was my car(untill i noticed 2 door missing!), with the tints aswell!!!.
Hope you enjoy your new wheels, and yes coming across another lazer Blue one is rare. ive been on this website for a year, and i think your about the 5th owner to pop on here.
Heres my car..... what spec do you have in her???

Woah! Hehe... thats uncanny!
Its got a quite basic spec to be honest... Manual, Dual climate, Single CD, Interlagos cloth (Which has really grown on me), 18" Monza II's.
But...dont care! The engine more than makes up for what She's lacking in spec.
The only thing I'd change is the single CD...may keep an eye out for a Changer or Mp3 - Friend of mine has just got a MY08 Golf which came with a Single CD, but can read MP3 discs. Are they standard fit now?

nice car!.....why did they drop that colour?.....think it is a really nice colour

It was The Mk 5 R32 was born in blue, simular colour to laser blue

Lovely car,
ED30 would have looked lovely in that colour :wink:
-
the more I see the blue, the more I wish it was still available :cry:
-
Lovely looking car and very well polished - nice deep wet look :smug:
Don't even rise to the Ed 30 bait - standard GTI spec is GOOD.
Black is even nicer though :wink:
Enjoy

Those pictures really did turn out well Etch, arms still sore though after all that waxing! ;)
-
Stunning looking car. I have only seen one with that colour in SA so far and must admit I love it to bits.
Those rims look :drool:
Enjoy the ride and welcome tu ze forum.
-
Spot on with the colour. Same as mine! Like you, I'm peeved that the head unit isn't better. Has anyone any ideas on what to put in its place?
-
personaly, i think this car standard gti in this colour with those wheels in 3 door is the best looking GTI ever made, sorry i went around the houses.

Great looking car, love the red piping on the front, really stands out :cool: You will have to clean yours now Phil :wink:

You wont win Phil, even with a driveway, you'll be getting grief about the amount of Time you spend cleaning it, not the money :tongue: At least the car will be better off on a driveway, better piece of mind IMO.
