hello fellow essex dubber!

lovely motor, bit too new and shiny for my tastes though   :tongue:

where abouts are you?

thanks mate,

oh, it gets dirty after about a day of driving! Never thought black would be so hard to keep clean, combined with my OCD to clean it = nightmare lol!

from Romford, yourself?

Ah I know absolute nightmare, worst thing is getting stuck behind a gritter!!  :angry:

Cool so not that far away either, well I took it to one garage, wasn't too impressed with them and after raving reviews on www.mk5golfgti.co.uk I went to see VrsAlex who's based in Bedford (3 hr round trip) but SO worth it, he is such a top guy, you stand in his garage with him while he works on your pride and joy, proper thorough job can't recommend him highly enough!

Looks nice mate! Im in Essex too, Upminster!

Whats ya plans for it?

Good to know there are fellow dubbers near by!! Plans, OEM LED tail lights I think, or H&R springs, really do want to get it fully detailed but at about £500 I am a bit reluctant lol! Yourself?

This definitely isn't helping my sudden urge to own a mk5.
