COMMENTS:

To me, this is the perfect Gti. I love it like Paris Hilton loves starring in homemade videos, and it’s an absolute hoot to drive. The power delivery becomes absolutely savage after 3000 RPM and the brakes haul you down from speed as if a parachute has been deployed at the back. There’s a little more understeer than I would care for, but should be remedied with the installation of a new rear sway bar, but in all, its handling is very balanced. As I’m a recent Uni grad, and looking for work, I don’t have the requisite dosh for any more mods at the moment, but once I’ve secured a posh job, look out!

FUTURE MODS: OEM HID (xenon) headlight conversion, Coil-over suspension (not sure what brand to go with yet), front and rear Neuspeed sway bars, R32 steering wheel, 19. Axis Supermesh wheels, Boser hood, leather interior conversion, Upsolute FMIC.
