careful saying things like that, the regulars will be round in force before you know it!

Easiest way to get pics into your posts is to get a photobucket account (www.photobucket.com) then u can upload the pics from your pc onto there. All you have to do then is copy and paste the third line of text from under the picture (think its the image line) into your post.

Sounds complicated but its not so bad.

Alternatively if you send pics to philippearson247@hotmail.com il get them on here for ya.

Welcome to the site by the way  :wink:

thats the best mk3 ive seen..ever! its just clean and subtle.. :cool:

Welcome to the forum.  :smiley:

To post pics, open a free account on www.photobucket.com upload your pictures to it from your pc and when they are in there copy the third text field under your pic and paste it into a thread and the pic should be seen by all, so quickly now.  :wink: :laugh:

I see Phil's already told you but I couldnt be bothered editing my post. :tongue:

welcome to the forum..

there's a fair few common faults with the mk4's (i should know, mine's had most of them :sad: ) but some of them depend on the year of the car.. got an age in mind ?

have a browse through the mk4 section, use the search too for things like "common problems" then just ask anything specific that you want to know.

toph.

yer im thinking around the 2000 possibly 99 one, but it all depends on the milage, most of the ones i have seen have an massive milage... :angry:, it will be the 150bhp, as i think once its re-mapped will be quite fast enough for lil me, will keep up with some of my mates, waste afew, and get trashed by 3 or 4, but i WILL be the chick wasting the boys :wink:
