Just bought a Golf GTI mk6
« on: 02 May 2013, 19:48 »
Hello all,

Just thought I'd introduce myself. I'm Johnny from Newcastle and have just bought a Silver mk6 GTI 5 door.

Hopefully I will get lots of help and tricks from you all.

I previously had a Astra VXR Arctic edition and loved that but it came with lots of faults.

Hopefully the golf is less of a problem.

Thanks

Welcome from another relative newbie.

You'll learn to love the Golf, it took me a while and I am smitten. It started with a Mk5 and now a Mk6. Hold on, I keep forgetting they are/were my wife's.......

Get it mapped. :laugh:

Likewise had mine for approx 1 month and love it....mines 2010 GTI Grey.
Came from a few cars last performance one being classic Impreza tuned to 300bhp > golf not as quick but better all rounder, quality is second to none....certainly compared with my Scooby anyway.

Enjoy the motor

I've had two MK6 GTIs so VW must've done something right!!
I do admire the looks and raw power of the VXR though :)
