You chopped a MKV GTI for 1 sprog?  :huh: 

Jeez, with 2 kids I'd still have kept it  :grin: 

With the next one, I think a 7 seater may be on the cards  :lipsrsealed: 

A Morego 250 remapped with power grip wishbones and AP 4 pots, MK5 GTI, OH and the GF's MKIV GT TDI. Bought a Mondeo (yes I know) ST estate and then MKII with the money I sold the 4pots for. So you can see why I can win with the emotional black mail.
Still the MKII IS more fun to drive than the MKV. There is more important things than power and grip belive it or not.
03 210 Seat LCR. Badger5 V2.2TIP, Fordge 007p, Wellycooler, Quaife ATB LSD, Nuespeed ARB's, KW Clubsports, 330mm discs, 3" turbo back de cat and still on the standard map!

My gf says she loves my mk2! Her actual words were "it's the best car you've had". (I should tell u I've had 3 classic mini's and a Ibiza cupra though.... not much competition. Haha!)

She wants to drive it but I'm not so sure with a brand spanking set on schmit th's on it  :shocked:

Sold "our" campervan and bought the MKII with the proceeds. You can imagine how popular that was!

Nick

I have a more vivid picture of how popular this would have been than most.  :shocked:

Well I am the missus with the golf and luckily no, my other half and I spend ages talking about what plans we have for the golf, how much money we need to save up etc etc. And he's been very generous in buying things like a new suspension set up for my xmas present one year. I'm very lucky  :grin:

We also talk a lot about saving up for a sexy M3  :drool:

I think it's best when you have the same interests lol
