We've had the car about 9 months, its the wifes first car and she decided she wanted a Golf GTi shes 27 tho, so we found this one in orange - not seen another one this colour in GTi spec before and as soon as she saw it, that was it, we bought it. It came with black cloth recaros when we bought it and standard wheels, 6 stack cd, upgraded stereo, aircon and sunroof etc pretty well spec'd from new I guess.



Its now got a Neuspeed P-Flo Induction kit, Forge Splt-R Valve - engine wise so not too much just yet.

Some pics from this weekend....these are the wifes christmas presents fitted on the car!





Its now got a full cream leather interior floor to ceiling, all carpets and plastics even the parcel shelf.  And I picked up a set of TT Quattro sport rep alloys about 2 weeks ago which I think look the nuts!  Only other mod is the GTi grille badge from a Lupo GTi

Just thought I'd see what people thought about it really, always nice to know what other people think.

I agree mate, can't go too low coz its like speed hump alley where we live, so I think 20-30mm max drop to keep our sanity really!!!

Think that will be the next thing once the exhaust is done

Which springs/shocks did you use on yours? Just sat looking at the picture I think it really does need lowering, over Christmas at the latest!!!!!
