Thanks for the replies guys..
Cupra's are nice, but not sure about the interior to be honest. Now i'm spending a few more £ compared with the last car, I want a nicer cabin..
Also I am looking for a standard car to start with as want to do the mods myself (strange I know  :grin:)..

Do you think a sticky would be a good idea with links to all the best offers and the available parts for the GTI?

For example

Remaps

REVO - Link to supplier and best price here
APR - Link to supplier and best price here

Exhausts

APR - Link to supplier and best price here
Milltek - Link to supplier and best price here

etc...just an idea?

nice idea but we can't really single out one supplier, prices changing all the time and various deals on offer etc

Still think it would be a good sticky to have, it can be left open and if someone happens to find a cheaper supplier they can post it up and the moderator can edit the original post and delete the reply to save people filtering through it all.

Links to the brake upgrade from Seat etc would be useful to have on there rather than someone posting up asking where to get them from.
sorry but my vaux looks far better than the mk5 gti, thats why i bought it  :wink: faster too  :grin:  :tongue:

That's totally understandable, that way you'll know exactly what you have done and that the components are what you wanted. As you know it's a buyer's market at the moment and I wouldn't be surprised if you can't get an Edition 30 for around the £14k to £15k depending on spec.

There are some great deals on R32's out there. Here is an 07 for under £15k

Here's an 08 Edition 30, which must be one of the last to be built, a bit expensive though.

Won't of been one of the last built on a 57 plate mate. Mine's a 08 for a start. Plus it also has the old Nav unit and not the RNS 510..
You're right though, it is dear..  :shocked:
