I guess this is adios...
« on: 26 October 2013, 23:53 »
Well it's a bit sudden and out of the blue really but I've just puta deposit down on my new car today :whistle:

It has been an awesome 3 years motoring and being part of the scene but I felt the time was right to move onto bigger and better things??? :lipsrsealed:

3years ago I brought this bog standard auq180




how it stands to this day.. A full Us spec 25th anniversary





Still undecided as to how I'm going to go about selling it  :undecided: how it stands or back to standard.

The new ride dare I say it..... :lipsrsealed: is number #700 out of #832  :wink:

Hope u dont have what happened to my mate, he got a vxr, only had 22k on the clock and the gearbox went apprantly there known for munching gearboxes because there is too much torque in the engine. Sad to see you leave the golf but the vxr's are nice inside. Not a fan of the keyless crap thou lol
