Title: New Member wanting MK3 GTI
Post by: MVP on 17 May 2008, 01:33: Hey dudes!!
Wanna get a MK3 GTi but havent been successful as yet dunno how much to spend etc,

what s the highest mileage you guys would pay for...?

the more i look at this site the more i dream of coilovers and and single wiper conversions etc lol.

i really wanna get black , green or mauve gti, dunno if im being to picky at the ads ive been viewing but i know i wanna good deal!

want to keep the car for a while and do some subtle mods too it. like Slam it to the deck on 16s and smoke out the windows

! wont put too much ice on the shelf as still deaf from my old corsa with the Alpine type Rs

did want a 3 door really i prefer the look!

thanks for the cool site!

get yourself over to the mk3 section

there is a buyers guide in there too

that link you posted looks ok... very standard so I am guessing that it hasn't been ragged..

Post by: MVP on 19 May 2008, 23:16: I noticed theres a lot of 5 doors mk3gti owners on here any reason for having a 5dr as opposed to 3????
Title: Re: New Member wanting MK3 GTI
Post by: 08micsta on 20 May 2008, 14:25: Yup. 5 door is practical for the older more kiddie laden guys. (No offence meant)
I prefer the 5 door.

And welcome to the forum.

Post by: MVP on 20 May 2008, 16:52: haha get ya.

Im not sure , i did want a 3door but i may get a 5 now, it opens the choices up for a decent find, If you know what i mean!

Post by: Len on 21 May 2008, 08:58: Welcome.

A 5 door is just more practical. Personally I think it looks better but then I'm biased! :grin:
