MK5 Golf GTI.

[Jason_E]

Probably the first car I've owned that isn't a bit of a shed since my Clio. 2006 Model with 75k on the Clock in Shadow Blue. Full VW Service history, including cambelt and water pump change at 65k. 3Door, with Tartan Cloth. Sunroof, auto lights/wipers, heated mirrors, Parking sensors, Cruise Control, dual zone climate control.

Plans are to tidy it up, mainly. New centre caps, GTI badge for the grille yada yada. Also I hit a badger last night so it needs a new lower grille. f**king wildlife.

I'll get some nice pictures soon. It's too damp and dirty atm.

 

[DB.]

Join the club!

I wish mine had Parking Sensors/Cruise Control!

 

[Gally]

Looking forward to this mate, really nice colour when modded and uber clean.

Wheel plans? They suit low with the larger Monzas actually. Nice cars and pull so well throughout the gears.

 

[Christopher]

You better make it look decent.

 

[is1]

This is exactly how these should be. Correct wheels too.

 

[_Tom]

Nice! No doubt it'll look very different in a few weeks/months. I'll look forward to it.

 

[.GAZ.]

Adjustable top mounts.

 

[davo172]

Good choice :approve: love MK5s when you getting it mapped ?

 

[Sir_Dave]

I wish mine had Cruise Control!

Stalk is £48 on the forum, then find a person with VCDS!! Took me 20 minutes to install it

Nice car Jason, i like red/white 3dr ones with 19" CH's and lowz.

 

[Rob]

Wow, I'm impressed youngun.

Really like that, perfect wheels for it to IMO.

 

[Chapppers11]

Best car you've had yet, by a country mile.

Love the colour as well.

 

[Jason_E]

Cheers guys. No wheel or lowering plans! I think it looks spot on as it is. Just need to clean up a few bits really!

 

[Budgie]

Ah, you've grown up.

 

[welshname]

Ah, you've got old and boring.

EFA.

Like I said on FB. Looks nice, but they are dying for a remap to liven them up a bit.

 

[Sir_Dave]

Looks nice, but they are dying for a V6 to give them some soul

Hai

 

[Rob]

I've just looked again, are they the smaller of the two wheels? The 19?'s in shadow chrome (standard finish I think) look mint.

 

[Hixle]

That looks lovely mate, best colour too.

Quite fancy one of these, if I'm honest.

17's Roberto..

 

[Daniel]

Nice car twatface. Best wheels and a good colour choice too.

You have the Dan seal of approval you bellend. x

 

[The Chubby Pirate]

Nice car you f**king c**t.

Love that shade too.

No xenons?

 

[VeinAST]

Don't put this on it's arse, doesn't deserve it (imo)

 

[Jason_E]

Dont you worry! I like it as it is.

And you're right Daniel, I avoided the big gash LOOK AT ME IM DIAMOND CUT AND THAT wheels. These look good, with a touch more class.

Oh, and as if the badger wasn't bad enough last night.... had a dead battery tonight. Couldn't be fucked with testing it or any of that, so I just bought a nice new bosch one! That should do it.

 

[SC03OTT]

Nice bus.

Oh, and as if the badger wasn't bad enough last night.... had a dead battery tonight. Couldn't be f**ked with testing it or any of that, so I just bought a nice new bosch one! That should do it.

Did you buy it from a dealer?

 

[Jason_E]

Chiltern Car Sales in Wycombe. Battery was dud when I first test drove it, but he claimed it was because the valeters had left the lights on (Believable, this thing lights up like a christmas tree) and it had been standing a while (again, believable looking at the discs).

It's started fine since I bought it, but tonight it just wouldn't. Bumped it, drove it to halfords (Left engine running) and came home. It did start again but I'd rather have a decent battery in for winter anyway.

 

[Daniel]

So get him to fcuking pay for it!!

 

[StephenJ]

Love it Jas! Glad to hear your keeping it simple this time.

 

[RDH]

Cheers guys. No wheel or lowering plans! I think it looks spot on as it is. Just need to clean up a few bits really!

Most sensible thing you've ever said. Looks great. Proper car.

 

[.GAZ.]

Bawbag.

 

[James28]

You have had a stupid amount of cars! (And you're roughly my age iirc - I've had two. Ha)
Very nice, interesting to see what you do with it!

 

[Dunn]

Nice......I'm still loving mine

 

[Dan-]

100% what i want next, probably around same miles and age as yours. Can i ask how much it cost?

 

[chriscummins7]

Looks great, +1 on how much mate?

 

[Lal B3N]

Looks great as it is. Nice colour too!

 

[Merk]

Best colour for it, really like that.

I agree with you keeping it as is, must be annoying the second you buy a car and some mongs are telling you to lower it and change the wheels already.

 

[.GAZ.]

Lower it and change the wheels.

 

[Joe#]

That look lovely. I haven't seen a lot it that colour (that I've noticed anyway).

 

[Merk]

Lower it and change the wheels.

fud

 

[DB.]

Winning wheels. Standard looks so much better and more subtle IMO. Same reason I went for the normal ones over the chavvy polished ones.

 

[ben_p]

Really like them.

I'd just keep it as it is, maybe a remap.
