Minis got me into the whole idea of driving a car that's got a cult following.
Needed something more 'practical' when I became a dad but still wanted a 'cool' car with a following.
One hazy evening with Horney later, I sold my last Mini to his missus and bought a Mk2 GTI.
Never looked back  :smiley:

Golf GTI: good enough as it is

why not...

the honest reason why i got my mk2 was because i wanted a mk3...

started looking for a mk3 cos i liked how they look, and still do, but the guy i worked with had a mk2...now mine... and suggested i have a look at his.

sat waiting in the local car park for him to turn up so i could have a look.. ex gf sat complaining about me wanting to sell mk focus...

then around the corner it came, slowly rolled past and parked up next to me... that was it, love at first sight. just looked the part! never looked back since then...

its never broken down, it runs like a bag of nails, needs working on every weekend, got a list longer than the great wall of china of bits i need/want... but the smile on my face when you boot it hurts!

great cars!


noble tuned - and still not fast enough!
