    Nothing Special

    Noob

    11-10-2011 03:14 PM #1
    Starting all over again makes me feel all new and noobie again. i like it, an adventure all over again

    So anyways, i sold the GTI about a month ago. i was abit saddened by it. (maybe alil more than abit actually lol)

    So far, im concentrating on collecting bits and bobs that i risk not finding afterwards and the important stuff.

    starting with the car itself

    sunday 5th october, left to pick up the car with a few mates and a wad of some hard earned cash monies





    VW Bora/Jetta

    2.8 V6 4Motion

    Silver

    106k

    Heated leather Seats (interior is near immaculate for that mileage might i add)

    Oem Xenons

    Full VW history

    and totally standard

    started with what was meant to be my first and only mod for the few months of winter we have

    my private number plate




    so at this time, i had told myself to save up enough money to be able to buy air straight away, rather than going coils and then sell it for air. in the meantime all i wanted to do was enjoy the 4x4 system, no boost leaks lol and just standardness really

    un/fortunately for me, i came across some rather special wheels at quite a special price... so i dug right in there and wasted no time getting them ordering in from germany

    tastyy!

    then came across some r32 subframe, wishbone etc etc, so didnt say no to them lol



    next up was some heated lupo stubby mirrors on mk4 base plates

    a friend over here sadly had to break his car so seeing as we dont get GLI bits over here in the UK, i decided to snap up the only bit of GLI kit he had, the door strips, just in case i wanted to go down the GLI route



    and last bit of news on the car as of a few days ago. i happen to bust my sump on the speed hump trying to get in to my road. they are rather big


    first sump gone - on standard suspensions lol by :hMd:, on Flickr

    it left me £200 out of pocket gaddamit!

    anyways, i'll update as time goes by. i've got a few things in the post that should be arriving over the coming months which i am looking very forward too

    keep good ladies and lads
