Another Newbie with Mk3 Golf GTi
« on: 05 November 2008, 19:24 »
Hi all!

Just got myself a Mk3 Golf GTI 8v, in black (the fastest colour lol) in very nice condition!

Ths will be my first non jap car, my last two being a highly modified imprezza and before that a Mitsi FTO with a dose of Nos !

Be gentle....its my first time  :wink:
Someone complimented me on my driving today. They left a note saying Parking Fine.....so that was nice.

Would have got a Mk2, but:

a/ A good condition low(ish) milage one in standard trim is like trying to find hens teeth, and if you do find one, it'll be expensive!

b/ the missus hated the look of the Mk2's....but likes the newer shape ones, and her word is law  :rolleyes: lol!

so there you have it  :wink:
