    Hello.

    After years of owning air cooled VW's im finally dipping my toes into the world of water cooled one's.......
    Now I have a family to look after, rat look bugs and campers are not exactly the safest/most practical type of vehicle to be using as a daily driver (well that was my excuse to her indoors ;))
    So.......
    Iv'e been searching for a while for the right car, for years iv'e fancied a MK2 GTI but couldn't find one that hasn't been 'messed' with or nailed by a 'boy racer'
    then this came along.....

    The only plans I have at he moment is to refurb the alloys........

    looking forward to exchanging knowledge, tips and banter ...

    cheers[:D]

    Totally agree and support your stance on the standard car look. Now under the skin, that is a different matter ;)

    Hello and welcome to CGTI :)

    That certainly looks a tidy model and unmessed with. They're getting rarer by the day.

    hi, nice motor.
    I still have my bay camper, but the golf is, as you say a more practical daily. lol
