Your GTI sounds cool!

I really missed XENONS on my GTi  :sad:


We used to have a couple of Brabus Smarts  :wink:

This was our first one!



This was our second one!







 :wink: Great to use around the city when we lived in our flat!

It is very very cool, (but thanks Doc) I actually enjoyed my commute home, in spite of taking it easy to run in the motor (I still belive in this quaint old tradition!)

Just need to work out a few things now, tried to get the auto closing windows / sun roof to work but i think i got that wrong (searching on the forums here came up with press and hold lock, so I'll try that again) and the other thing is the revised stereo, why on earth are the buttons a different colour...  however that should be sorted when i get the cash together to Alpine the HU and add in GPS...  ;-)

Its was my missus car for her to go to uni in and when I drove it I did not have time to wave to anyone!

Good fun though but it needed an ESP off switch!

I had a CL500 at the time!
