 :cool: Hi all,, well to be honest im very new..... Im 44 years old , and {dont laff} still a learner driver.Never saw the need to drive before, but i guess if you carnt beet them , may aswell join them. So 3 weeks ago wilest lookin on e-bay, i saw a very nice black MK4 golf gti 2liter {115 bhp} with 18" wheels.It was only 20mins away from me. so me m8 took me down to have a look.1st mistake it was dark and looked drop dead goergous.So i had it. {oh by the way its a W reg.. 2000}.. the next day i noted that it had a lot of wot real drivers call  ' curbing ' , me being a learner i thought well it saves me do it.. lol .. i have had about 10hrs driving it {200 miles} and must say it is well comfey, and told it is also well smothe.{i myself am well cuffed with it}.But i do have 1 small problem with it, if i can run it by you pros?  :cry: Al of a sudden the right lights frount and back do not work anymore .The side light ? comes on but not any others.The indicators still work as do the brack lifgts but nothing else.Ive cheaked the bulbs {sorry we} and all appears well, just dont come on.Apart from that oh and how much petrol it drinks,,,,I LOVE IT................PICS TO FOLLOW {when i can get my head round this camera} :embarassed:
