Hi peeps
« on: 20 February 2011, 20:38 »
Hi Peeps  :smiley:

I am a newbie, I currently own a mk6 escort GTI which i am going to scrap as the dreaded rust has got into it and in its place i am looking at getting a Golf  :grin:

I will need as much help as possible as to what to look out for and what would be the best golf gti mk4 to go for? as its a big change from a ford lol

cheers

Loopy
