5th Gear MK11 Golf GTI competition
« on: 02 April 2009, 17:56 »
This is probably a long shot but 5th Gear runs a competition at the end of each episode - one of the competions included an Oak Green Golf GTI 16V and I was wondering if anyone one of you lucky buggers won the car?!?

The car is featured on the below link..

Awesome.  In no time it'll have stretched tyres on 13 inch wheels, painted-over plastic arches, smoothed rear boot lid, a rusty rat-look bonnet, and a chrome roof rack with some 1920's luggage on it.
