Hello
« on: 17 March 2011, 16:13 »
Hi

Just thought I would say Hello from Macclesfield picking up my Golf Mk4 GTi first thing tomorrow  :smiley:

Anyways HELLO

I will put some pic's up after the weekend

I did have a look at a couple of MK4 GTi's 1.8T's before I decided which one I was going to get, one of them had a faulty Thermostat and was overheating quite bad so thought it would be best to stay away incase it had caused any more issues it had full service but not main dealer.  The one I went for in the end had 90k on it and Full VW History hoping she should be ok with 90k

Stu

And then of course drop it to the floor on the widest possible wheels you can find, right?  :grin: :grin: :grin:

Down and out is a good look, and one that is perfectly practical, it has forced me to only be friends with skinny people, and only see one of them at a time.  :grin: :grin: :grin:
