Wow Nice choice Alex
the mk5 Golf GTI is a stunning car so i'm sure your going to enjoy it
Nice to see Greg will be tackling the GTI too, I bet he's just waiting for the insurance to come down now?
Get some more pics up of the golf when you get chance

Aye itll be good. I quite like the 5 door variety - find theres too much empty bodywork on the 3 doors due to the size of the car lol
Indeed waiting till he's 19

So is he paying the value for next year? Lol.
How does it feel moving to a golf? Looks like your car has gained weight, lol.

Re: The GTI! - Alex's Progress Thread - Big news....
Its going to be worth the wait for Greg though, the step up from a 1.0 to a 1.6 135bhp GTI will be very nice indeed
Golf looks class, I would have gone for the 5 door too.
Its a big hatchback at the end of the day and they just dont look right in 3 door IMO, plus as you quite rightly said the 5 door is far more practical

How much did the E30 set you back if you don't mind me asking? Been looking into these for when I come to upgrade
Just insurance....

Now that is a secret
lets just say enough!
Insurance is ok for me, but I have 4 years no claims so that makes a world of difference

Phew, big news indeed bro.
As said on FB, lovely looking car! That's gotta be about 18Ks worth of VAG Slag right there!
Amazing news that Gregg is taking on the Polo also.
Shame about the Genesis, how much she going for?
