Title: I Blame PistonHeads
Post by: gti_technik on 26 March 2008, 20:00
Hi all,

just bought my first ever VW..  and im hoping that i've been missing out for the past 10 years or so!

PistonHeads is to blame for me spending more cash on cars! a 1995 2.0 8v Golf Gti, 51k on the clock and a very original example.

im hoping to pick the car up in a few days, wish me luck!  :wink:

yup  :smiley:

only things that have gone wrong have been my fault  :laugh:

Rear wheel bearings for instance...
Front bumper being mashed...

Other than that she's pretty good.
