well bought a wee mk3 golf gti 8v last week. Initially bought as a wee runaround till i saved up for a car in summer!

But more i drive i seem to like it more, its pretty much standard, good history and very clean! Only mods is the suspension and alloy wheels! Only thing i plan on changing is the alloy wheel plates, as they are seat ones! so got to change that to VW!

I also have 17" Golf alloys but havent yet tried them on and dont know which golf they are from and if they will fit, if not they will be for sale soon.





and the 17" wheels
