Well chaps and chapettes, following on from a previous thread I've done the deed and bought myself a MK5 GTI! Tornado Red, 5 dr, leather interior, ipod armrest...and I think thats about it, almost the spec I wanted apart from the colour and no MFSW / Highline. Picking her up tomorrow evening. I was seriously considering buying a brand new one on PCP as it would have been the same a month as a 3 year old one at the stealers on HP but I couldn't be assed with the wait.
Trading in my mint mk4 1.8T, feel a bit sad doing that as it was my first car and I feel a bit disloyal choping her in for a younger model when there is really nothing wrong with her. Ah well onwards and upwards!
Not planning on doing too many mods but I will deff be painting the rear bumper, dont know about the skirts or front lip, doesn't look too bad - does this have any impact on the insurance?
Does the Mk5 have footwell lighting? I know with most vags this is part of a lighting pack but on the current options list I don't see this but people have mentioned it before?
I'm sure I'll have some more Q's tomorrow night. Cant wait!
