New Member wanting MK3 GTI
« on: 17 May 2008, 01:33 »
Hey dudes!!
Wanna get a MK3 GTi but havent been successful as yet dunno how much to spend etc,

what s the highest mileage you guys would pay for...?

the more i look at this site the more i dream of coilovers and and single wiper conversions etc lol.

i really wanna get black , green or mauve gti, dunno if im being to picky at the ads ive been viewing but i know i wanna good deal!

want to keep the car for a while and do some subtle mods too it. like Slam it to the deck on 16s and smoke out the windows

 ! wont put too much ice on the shelf as still deaf from my old corsa with the Alpine type Rs

did want a 3 door really i prefer the look!

thanks for the cool site!

welcome to the site

get yourself over to the mk3 section

there is a buyers guide in there too

that link you posted looks ok... very standard so I am guessing that it hasn't been ragged..

Yup. 5 door is practical for the older more kiddie laden guys.  (No offence meant)
I prefer the 5 door.

And welcome to the forum.
