Hi Anouther Newbie.... with a few pic's
« on: 30 January 2009, 23:22 »
hi all,

well basically i don't actually own a golf YET! but i am looking into it  :smiley: at the moment im liking the mk3's but i love the rest equally.
reason im looking at a mk3 is.... it's more within my price range if i choose to sell my car i have now. but before i decide to sell mine i wannid to find out a little bit more on golf's. so im looking forward to getting to know most of you and lerning abit off you all.

my 1st question is........

i know it's silly of me to ask on a golf forum but im hoping you will all answer truthfully  :smug: am i doing the rong thing getting rid of my saxo vtr for a mk3 golf gti? i know i know it's a saxo lol but to me it's not just a saxo it's my 1st car and was compleatly standar when i had it. i've made it my own and kept it in show room condition almost and it still run's brilliantly  :smiley: but i am getting a lil board and have always loved the dub seen.

any way's pic's of my car so you can give me your honest answers to wether you think i should join you guy's or stick with what i know lol
all comments good or bad welcome. im up for a lil banter lol.

my sh!troen saxo vtr....

















i apologise for the sax-p logo's on some of the pic's

welcome  :smiley: there is still some decent low mileage mk2's about but unfortunatly the prices have started goin up too  :undecided: nothing wrong with the mk3 though. if the saxo was a vts id have said keep it because it would be quicker but not bad lookin even for a saxo lol  :wink:

fear is temporary, regret lasts forever...

Wow, a French car that has been modded tastefully, make that exhaust half inch smaller and I don't mind it.

Sorry, for some reason, I just hate French cars. Don't know why, just do.   :huh:

Saw somebody roll one today, somebody pulled out on some woman, and this guy in this Clio swerved to avoid her (wasn't going that fast) hit a bank and then her Ford and rolled it.

Felt sorry for the guy, not the car!  :laugh:

Anyway, welcome to the site mate! Get a tug-boat MK3, I love mine, even if it has no seats! LOL!  :grin:
