I'm still a maybe, getting my head around the £££££ issue as I don't use the car much and there's nothing wrong with my mk5 so the facelifted car may be a bit of an extravegance(sp).

Who's the one who voted 'wrecked one'? A stealer's PDI mechanic by any chance?  :grin:

Just 6 with a car.
No wonder I have not seen one up here.
Do come up though, the GTI is not at it's best in towns.

Really ? That's one of its strongest points.

Not really is it. Can't say that being in towns is ever much fun.

GTI is far better suited to hitting the b roads and flying round the bends, but be careful mate if you do that too much you might get your candy White paint a bit dirty!

Good point, I'm gonna have to card out for some good cleaning/polishing/waxing stuff soon.
