Oh no, not another newbie!!
« on: 01 August 2006, 20:20 »
Hi Guys n Gals,

I just joined today! First post.

I have been checking out the site for the last few weeks and reading the Golf Mk2 forum has been very helpful in convincing me to get a Mk2 Golf GTI 16V, that and carsurvey.org .

Ideally I would like a 3 door late model, which has been unmolested as I want to keep it that way.

Nice to have found this site and hopefully I will be able to enjoy the ride soon. I can't wait!  :smiley:

Hello, ello ello  :smiley:

It's a Greek word and it means a native of the island of Chios, which is a Greek Island in the Aegean Sea. I chose the name as it is where my mother is from and I like the name.

It is pronounced "Hiotis", in Greek an "X" is pronounced as a H. That's enough Greek lessons for today :nerd:, I bet it's all Greek to most of you anyway :wink:

Thanks for the welcome.

I saw a nice black valver in autotrader actually for £795, but its north west so totally useless to you if you live down south!  :laugh:

I appreciate the heads up.

I don't mind travelling up North to get a nice one and £795 sounds like a good price. I think I found the one you are refferring to, it has the smaller bumpers which is a shame. Should she have the smaller bumpers on a G plate?
