Hey n00bie here!
« on: 20 December 2009, 12:11 »
Hey guys

im Simon from Leicester, 24 years old!

just aquired a Vw mk4 Golf GTi turbo for a cheap cheap price off a friend!

had a few motors in my time, started with this lot:

Vauxhall Corsa 1.2
Ford escort 1.6 16v
Ford Escort RS turbo s2
Bmw 318is
Honda Civic type R
Ford Focus RS
Suabru impreza WRX PPP

now bought a house, and needed a cheaper motor, which is alot cheaper to insure etc !

due to its from a friend i got the golf for next to nothing, 1999 model, 3door in black, 130k full service history, and just had 4 x new tyres / mot / tax / service!

got some bad bits though, due to it costing next to nothing, massive scratch on the passengers wing and door, needs a new grill, wing mirror know has snapped inside, drivers door laquer has peeled in a small place, but all cosmetic stuff, it runs fine! except for having an Dump valve on it, which will get taken off and a Forge recirc put in its place!

will get some pics once ive got it

pleasure to be here!

simon!
