Hi people,
I'm a newbee. Anyway, the suggestion was to introduce myself so thats what i'm gona do!
I'm Rosie, 22 years old and from sunny Edinburgh. Got my 1st GTI a few weeks back and absolutly love it. It's a mk 5, silver, I got it standard. The 1st thing I did to it was put on some 19" replicas, when I saw them on thought I was being a bit ambitious with the 19's as they looked huge on! Anyway, i delt with it and got it lowered 30mm, there wasn't much room left with the 19's on! I also put an air filter on, don't even know what make it is, got totally ripped off with it but that's another story. Tinted the windows 30% and it is going in on Friday to have it's cat-back stainless exhaust fitted. All going well it should be a twin centre exit, if not then it will just end up being 2 side exits. After that the bottom bits of the bumpers and side skirts are going in to get sprayed silver. Then I want to get lexus led back lights and I hear that some company have a few brand new R32 engines for sale, let's just say i'm considering it! I want some angel eyes front lights but havn't managed to find any.
Thats as far as i've got for now but coming up with more things every day so no doubt it will change. I don't really want to do much more on the outside because I really feel that subtlety is the way forward when it comes to modifying cars, some of the chavvy boy racers round hear really need to be told that, however the more bhp the better!!
BTW whilst i'm on the subject, does anyone know if it's true that you can't put a full induction kit on my car?? Want to know if it's just a load of nuts or not. :grin:
So i'll sign off for now but any chat is appreciated, finding it hard finding any locals into GTI.
Bye!!! :smiley:

-
Hi people,
I'm a newbee. Anyway, the suggestion was to introduce myself so thats what i'm gona do!
Then I want to get lexus led back lights
Am I the only person to spot this? Don't do it unless you mean the pucka LED conversion that still looks standard.
Nick

Oh and welcome!
Nick

Hello and welcome
Get some pics of your motor up, sounds good :cool:
3 pages already and no Leonard yet.....strange. :undecided:
-

also you should be able to post anywhere you want :huh:
I have been to 3 weekenders, would have loved to have been to them all but funds/work/general life wont allow it! have you been to any? I love them, you have the best time, everyone is just really up for it, need a good week after to recover though :wink:
Anywho, back to the point, i would have thought there should be a tab at the top of the page saying something along the line of comment or summit, am i be :undecided:ing really stoopid and totaly missing the obvious? Coz i really cant find out how to do it!!!! :undecided: :sad:

Get back to me and let me know :smiley:

Because it looks horribly Chav. While I can understand your reasoning these kind of lights always look cheap and tacky. It's your car though and of course if you like them then that's all that really matters.

wot colour car u got?? these are a good looking light for the mk5, they also look stock!! :drool:
http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b308/RedRobin_05/LEDtails.jpg :smiley:
-
Who is this Leonard that you speak of???? I am intreaged :huh:
Gona get some pics up when i figure out how the hell you do it! Bare with me people!

http://i22.photobucket.com/albums/b308/RedRobin_05/LEDtails.jpg :smiley:
They are not bad, its all the red, iv got this thing about red in lights. Dunno what it is. I have a silver car so the idea was to keep it all silverish and its quite alot of red on the lights not just a wee bit. Anyway, the lights are really just a minor change, got things i want to do before that. They are just for if im bored one day and have nothing to do!!
-
Oh well, may as well join in and try and get the thread to 8 pages. :rolleyes: How do you young people get to afford mk5s at that age ? :huh:
Welcome to the site. :cool:
-
isnt Edinburugh full off Crack addicts or is that glasgow
Either way crime pays - Freelance chemists always need transport
-
Love it! LOL :grin:
Yeah we have our fair share of crack addicts,amongst other things. Depends where you are in the city really. Edinburgh is posher than Glasgow (suposedly) we are the ones that Trainspoting is filmed in.
Oh and us "young ones" can't afford mk 5's really, we are all debted up to our eyeballs! It's all just a front. Well some of us, im lucky enough not to be in that possition :wink:
Wish i was more technical, cant figure out how to get my pics on............
-
Ok here are some pics of my baby, bare with me guys, i am but a novice at all this modifying malarky........
Right, this is stage one. In other words, standard apart from the wheels. Didn't get a pic of it with the standard wheels coz i got my new ones the day i got the car! I'm an eager beaver.......
(http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii319/66pinkrabbit99/2008152.jpg)
(http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii319/66pinkrabbit99/2008151.jpg)
OK, stage 2, in other words lowered and with a rather sh!tty but costly filter, damn those scheming cowboys!!
(http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii319/66pinkrabbit99/2008159.jpg)
(http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii319/66pinkrabbit99/2008160.jpg)
Getting a good taste of the scottish weather!
(http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii319/66pinkrabbit99/2008161.jpg)
So here we are at stage 3, having the windows tinted, again unfortunatly it was done by cowboys, you cant tell from a distance but when you look close up i think is really obvious how little care has gone into it. Will get them fixed at some point, can't be doing with half measures. I have recently found out the guy who owns the shop i got my alloys from has a mate who does it! Bloody typical eh, I get on well with him so hoping to get a wee dicount :wink: but he might have told me in the first place he has a mate that would do it.
(http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii319/66pinkrabbit99/2008172.jpg)
(http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii319/66pinkrabbit99/2008173.jpg)
Ok so thats all the pics for now. Next up it will be going in tomorrow (14/3/8) for its stainless cat-back twin centre exit and then i will get those nasty black plastics sprayed. After that i'm gona try and get sorted all the things that have been botched. SO if you know anyone reliable, in Scotland preferably, i will travel though, then let me know, help is muchly apreciated.
Speak soon peeps xx
-
Sweet ride! hope the twin centre exit works out. will be niiiiice....

my poor car looks like a feckin antique next to that space mobile! ha!

-
You know more about Cheeky Chappers than me! Not heard from her since I left Volksgirls.
Niki, well she had to sell her car.
Lottie - last I heard was only driving a 205 16v
northernmonkey not seen much of her either, not even on facebook!
Izzie! well she was last heard of oh well over 3 years ago now! And yes she went back to France to look after her elderly Dad after her Mum died suddenly!
There is a lot more I could tell but thats their private business. :tongue:
-
There's at least a couple more I can think of!
Angel

Got it up to 140mph tonight :laugh:! Just about got caught, didn't notice the police infront of me, managed to slow down in time though. Next on the list is better brakes and anti roll bars lol!
:grin: :kiss:
-
Got 120 out of a Mk 5 tdi yesterday! (hire car) :evil: :grin:
-

Ruddy bell! Len's behaving himself :huh:

Forget the brakes, just get a Romulan cloaking device.....

Forget the brakes, just get a Romulan cloaking device.....
A clocking device you say?! Tell me more........
Welcome :smiley:
Ruddy bell! Len's behaving himself :huh:
Rosie, by GolfGTi LAW you must post smutty pics of yourself :laugh:
It would be incest if Lenny/daddy didn't behave himself with me! That, and I know how to handle a man, they all do as there told when i get my hands on them :wink:
In terms of the smutty picks my love, i'll show you mine if you show me yours, the offers there! Oh and just how smutty are you allowed on here??? :laugh:
:kiss: :tongue:
-
Rosie my daughter take a look at the Dub Babes thread! From that you can see its pretty liberal around here! :laugh:
Have had c*ck pics (Fielder) but those dont stay long as Photobucket or whatever soon ban them!
So up to you my dear! :wink:
-
And where do i find this dub babes thread daddy-oh??
-
Sticky section of Nonsense.
-
Try this link!
http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=65074.0
But there are 157 pages!
-
Do girls go blind?
:laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
Rosie you are spending far too much time in the Dub Babes thread! :wink: :laugh:
-
Well there is rather alot to go thru, and i have to say some of them are absolute dogs!!! :sick:
Why are there no men??? I say we get some pics of guys up, there might already be some but i cant be bothered looking thru every page.
I make it my aim this weekend to get some good pics of me with the car and post them. At least, unlike some of the birds, i am genuinly interested in cars! Most of those girls have been paid to pose with them. Boo them for not having taste!! :rolleyes:
-
No men in there! Thats not allowed! :grin:
Think Han or Dinx did a thread for blokes to post pics of themselves but it wasnt as popular! :laugh:
-
Well now see thats not fair!!
I want hot naked men washing cars, lots of white foaming stuff dripping from them over a tasty car....... :drool:
Wonder where i can find some pics......
there has to be some some where, it can'tbe uncommon girls liking cars and boys! :rolleyes:
-
If you can find them Rosie sure they would be welcomed by the ladies!
-
I am currently trying to track some down! It's harder than i 1st thought.
Perhaps i should go into the line of business of taking pics of hot guys with hot cars, there seems to be an opening in the market :grin:
-
I've got one of me leathering the Jag somewhere......
-
Go on.......
-
Oh, I can't post it on here, it'll frighten the horses!
-
Well hotmail it to me! Will return the favour, if its any good!!
-
I think that if I emailed you my picture I'd be hearing from (a) the police (b) your lawyer and (c) Amnesty International in pretty short order. The cars are nice though!
-
That is very presumptuous of you m'love.
Believe me, i bet i can say i have seen alot worse recently. You have no idea what my young eyes have had to witness :shocked:
-
Well, I must say you're doing a splendid job of massaging an old man's ego. :wink:
-
Lol, i aim to please! I'l not say to much but i seem to be doing alot of that lately :grin:
Teehee!! So come on with the pics! I'm happy to put a pic of me up!
-
Nah, I'm a pretty private sort of chap. If I put up a picture next thing you know I'd have a gang of BBC weather girls banging on my door demanding attention. That can become tiresome when all you really want is a nice mug of Horlicks and a read of Gardeners Weekly.
It's lovely here in my private fantasy world!!!
-
I know exactly what you mean. It's my bubble and you can't make me come out!! Well i've settled down a bit now but heres a wee pic of me a couple of years ago when i was a bit more wild!
(http://i267.photobucket.com/albums/ii319/66pinkrabbit99/7839793a5081659227l.jpg)
-
Do all the floors slope like that in Edinburgh? You'd have to be pished to stand up straight!
-
Lol, that pic was taken in my old flat, and yeah the floors were really sloapy! It was also after my birthday party, thinkwe'd all been up for a good 24 hours when that had been taken, hence me s :grin:itting down and the person taking it at an angle!!
-
You look like you were having fun - not sure your eyes are both pointing in the same direction though. Heading that way myself......decided that a bottle of Valpolicella was a much better idea than bloody Horlicks.
-
Yeah the eyes were all over the place that night :laugh: hence one of them being shut, helps me see straight! :shocked:
F**k the horlicks, its friday night!!! I have major toothache tonight so been downing the dihydrocodine with wine, feeling much better now :smiley: :grin:
-
Me too, but it's been a long week and I've been up since 5:15. Time for bed, as the guy with a spring up his arse said. Thanks for the chat, hope we cross paths again soon - night night!
-
Since I joined before you babes, Ill say welcome..............oh and I LOVE your car so so much :smiley:
(http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v681/Robtur/Rosie%20mk5%20GTI/2060920512a9380087099l.jpg)

I love your car, I love you.
That is why we fit so well babe!
-
Ohhhhh Rossie gone all matching.
-
Looking hot though eh!
-
Very much so, grinds me why VW always for the anni edition to colour code the thign up, they did the same with the MK4. Was thinking myself but decided to spend £500 on a remap instead. How much it set you back if you dont mind me asking?
-
You love my car, you love me.
I love your car, I love you.

Yeah i got a remap as well. Umm the colour coding, front splitter and sides, then a bump in the back fixed and front lights fitted, if i remember rightly all in all cost about 1.5k
-
