First Golf
« on: 15 February 2008, 12:09 »
Hi all,

Just bought my first golf yesterday, its a 1988 Mk2 GTi and its my first water-cooled car after just selling my bug after 4 years!! I know nothing about Golfs but had sooo much fun after just 24hours of owning one!

Take it easy!!

Nice one, a few Westons normally does the trick before you have to cope with bow in the pubs! Just taken the car for a spin round Chippenham earlier, was quite a nice change from the bug if im honest  :undecided:
