Hi All!
« on: 12 January 2009, 16:52 »
So Hey!, I was recommended to this site buy a pretty nice guy called Topher (i don't know what nickname he has on here lol but a forum admin i was told)

So anyway here i am, Im 18 and live in Deal, Kent! This is only my second car, first being a fiat punto lol! So heres a few pictures, Il apologise now for the quality as taken with my phone and at this time of night!





So hopefully as you can see by that it's a 2000 reg mark 4, 1.6 SE dark green colour, hmm you might be able to tell by now but i have no experience with cars/styling/performance so im looking for some advice really. All i've done so far is installed the audio

I've been browsing a lot of the pictures you guys/gals have uploaded and am liking them a lot! Im looking to spray my car black or something similar as im not totally liking the green! and to fit some new alloys maybe thinking about changing the exhaust and air filter?

Any suggestions or tips or links for where to buy from would be greatly appreciated! I don't want to be spending alot and i have no experience with fitting or installing certain parts so advice or help on that also would be awesome!  :shocked:

thanks for your help :D  :cool:

It's not often I get called a pretty nice guy :grin:

awesomegti.com is probably the best web based shop to get stuff from.. you can pop a question in the mk4 section about your engine upgrades

oh and to make you feel better the 1.6 is actually just about as quick as the 2.0 GTI (just don't try to race the 1.8Turbo boys :laugh: )
