Buying my dream car!
« on: 28 November 2012, 20:47 »
At 40yo, final buying my dream car at the weekend. Is it an Aston, Ferrari or even a Range Rover? Nope it's a 97 2.0 Gti 8v 3dr. No mods and all original. Needs some tyres and £150-200 in the workshop then off I go.

Any VW or Gti owners clubs in the North East anybody can recommend?

Cheers

So do I.  :smiley:

No doubt that 150-200 will turn out to be a bit more. Going into the shop for the once over at the weekend so fingers crossed.
