Modifying is a very dear habbit! Once you start you can't stop!
 
I can agree to that.  I only wanted to go stage 2 but now I have K04+supporting mods on the way.  Oh no what have i gotten my self in to.  :evil:

Waste of money on a Golf.
Just buy a faster and better car like a 1M, M3, C63 AMG Saloon or Coupe, 911, Cayman, Boxter but no Audis except the R8.
Or go Italian Ferrari, Maserati. But no Alfas or Audis except the R8.
You can always buy Indian like a Jaguar and feel a bit British or vice versa. But no Audis except the R8.
Don't bother with any junk Americana, but you know this already.

To each his own but if I had the money to buy any of these cars why would I be on here posting about my GTI. I mean come on are forums not meant to exchange ideas and share feedback of things that have been done with cars wether it be mods or repairing issues that have happened through out owner ship of the car.

Yep, agree with you totally there.
However, once you get sinking money into a car you've got to consider whether your money would be better invested/wasted on something that could do that out of the box for the same sort of money.
Then again, if you're the type of person who would buy the out of the box more focussed car than the GTI and start thinking about modifying that too then you're just a born petrol head and in good company here!!

Having just read what I've typed above it doesn't make an awful lot of sense but it's Sunday morning and my brain is mashed so I apologise and am off to crawl back under a rock.

If I was seriously going down the mod route, I'd mod myself first with some excellent plastic surgery. Nothing like spending money on the bits nature gave you and buggered up in the process. But then again, looking at ME, there's not much to be done as it cannot be done due to a lack of surgical progress. By the time that comes about, I'll be worming my way through the countryside.

Ah well, ETTO.

Krazy_Z and Kenny are young and have the sprit of adventure still in their veins. This is what moves us on as a race. Us oldies who have had the sprit of adventure knocked out of us can sit at home with our cart horses whilst the young bucks can genetically modify their stallions.

Or something like that.

I am still a pretty passionate person, full of vim, but the present depressing mood of this country is p!ssing me off no end. I wish I lived in France. It's so beautiful there and the people are eye candy.

It's that crap time of year now Asker, we've kissed good by to the 'summer' and the evenings and mornings are getting darker. It's no wonder the Scandinavians have such a high suicide rate.

One good thing about the rain is watching the water beading off my Dodo juiced paintwork  :cool:

At least you've got your priorities spot on.

She sounds like a very accomodating type of girl. A boy could get into a lot of trouble with a girl like that.

It's very nice to have the rain beading and rolling off freshly waxed paintwork, the only trouble is that you don't want to actually drive anywhere because you know you'll only have to start all over again with the cleaning tomorrow. Unless you enjoy the never ending polishing routine that is. I don't.

In fact if I use my GTI any less I'm just going to bring the f*cking thing into my living room and keep it there as an ornament.

Wolfgang gets parked closer and closer to my house. I think Wolfgang wants to sleep with me. But I've told him I am not DC, YET.
