Love all the GTi's even the Mk3 and Mk4 ones !!! :smiley:

my first GTi was a chavved up, raped mk2 8v Gti lasted all of 2 months but i got the GTi bug !

It was the Mk2 golf that got me into golfs, my cousin had a minter of a 1.8 gL ! it was sick !!  ps cousins Golf is only on 48,000, its a H reg !!!! LOL

I absolutly love a stock mk1, especially with the twin round lights, and the mk2 16v in oak green !

If you love mint standard Mk1 GTI's you need to get a copy of this months VW Driver mag  :drool: :drool:

....I've done 55,000 since August 05 - I really don't understand loving a car but not driving it much. Last week I did about 800 miles and this week looks like only 20 - I'm beginning to feel withdrawal symptoms.

I love and wave acknowledgement at all Mk GTI's/Ed30's and R32's.

....Have just started today to discuss with VWR what we'll do with the suspension (early KoniFSD's deteriorating) but she won't go into their workshop for quite a few weeks yet.

Last week I visited Milltek in Derby (400 miles) and took my daughter to see a college in Cornwall and went to Castle Combe at the weekend. This week I've only got the daily school run of 5 miles a day and she didn't need a lift today. Next week I'm visiting JKM in Portsmouth, Cardiff Uni, and friends in Surrey - It's just the way it goes and I never know beyond a week ahead.

That's part of the beauty of a Mk5 - Every journey is a joy and stress free :afro:

agreed, judging by the success and quality of the MK5 I think the MK6 will not let us down  :wink:

probably exactly what people said after the mk2, and look what immediately followed it.

Got to say I like all the Golfs apart from the MK3. Had a MK4 and then a sudden turn in fortune at work allowed me to live in the dream world of MK5. A lot of people slate the MK4 but get a 1.8T with a map and its a cracking little car.
