My GTI-6

[Eddd]

Evening all.

Just got back from a mission drive to pick up my new baby. It's a '99 S reg in Nile blue with 63k on the clock. Its just had the cambelt done and a full service, refurbed alloys put on and there's not a mark on it, inside or out.

Coming up to this from my old 1.4 306 is like chaulk and cheese, I absolutley love it!

Just a few pics from the advert but once the weather clears up a bit I'll get the PC onto her and she'll be be even more

[okgo]

You could have had mine, it looks cooler...

But no nice one mate.. will give you a nice shock with the fuel consumption over the 1,4

nice one mate, nice colour too.
Bin the p6000's in favour of something better and fit a stiffer anti roll bar on the rear & you will be laughing

I found mine really twitchy when cornering at high speed.

OOooo i saw this just before you bought it i was at Carl's, he wastelling me its cleanest car hes ever sold and he has a fair few.

looks great,

interestingly has a P3 rear tailgate, never seen one on an S reg before, usually they are on T plates or so....you have an early Parts Bin Special

would look great with clear headlights, colour coded side strips and also the B Pillar trims need putting back on

Yer, it's a PH2.5! Going to be replaing both headlamps and fog lights to phase 3 numbers in time, just gunna get xmas out the way first though!

Just like mine on a T - mixture of bits. Mine has ph3 boot, ph2 side strips, a random selection of badges, ph2 dials, ph3 dash insert... Bizzare.

Enjoy! I love mine to bits.

looks great, i really like gt-6's.

Hey I've just worked this out - this came from Carl in Leicester didnt it? Must be a good-un then, he's a legend in GTi-6 circles! Top bloke, did my timing belt for me.

Lovely car mate… it looks really clean. I had one a few years ago, best FWD car I have ever had. And very quick, even by to day’s standards.

[Eddd]

Certainly did come from the God that is Carl Mr Snot, although someone has already driven into the back of me, f**ker!

Oh ffs....

Is anything bent behind the bumper?

I think the panel with the badges on is pretty easy to chop out and replace.

Bad luck mate...

[Eddd]

No luckily it hasn't been written off, although it could quite easily have been. Just now waiting to hear from insurers/accident repair place for when it's getting sorted. Really hope it's in the next few weeks as I don't really enjoy driving a half bent car around!
