Elo all, proud MK3 GTI owner in here !
« on: 31 August 2009, 20:23 »
Elo all.

Yesterday I became the proud owner of a tatty MK3 GTI. I set out to find a bargain, something I could tidy up and put my mark on. I found a MK3 GTI not far from me and bagged it for £430. The only things wrong with the car was some slight cosmetic damage and it needing a bloody good clean.

I have spent the whole of today stripping the interior and giving it a good clean out. It looks like a totally different car already !

Haha, thanks for the welcome so far lads.

@Rob

Damn, I knew I should have taken some pics prior to cleaning.

It was in a right state, actually I was quite offended the previous owner made no effort at all to make it presentable but hey. It was as if he was breeding cows in the back !
