New Golf GTi owner!
« on: 11 March 2006, 18:00 »
Just bought myself a VW Golf GTi last night so thought it was best register to help keep it looking and running how it should. 

1990 VW Golf GTi (Big Bumpers) 1.8 8v.  Got it for a bargain price so couldn't resist, needs a bit of tlc but thats just part of the fun.  Was going to be a runaround until I gt my Vectra back on the road, but I like it so we'll see!



This is how it currently is.  Need a set of wheels though as one of the rims is badly damaged.  Got a full Scorpian exhaust and an induction kit.  Bit of tlc and she'll be ok...for now :)

I like the wheels too, but unfortunately they'll have to go as one wheel is badly dinged.  I'm not 100% sure of the mirrors (as you can see fcuk all through them), but I'll probably leave them unless some cheap OE ones come up.
