Cheers guys. I cant wait to pick it up next week :D

As for the 5 door...lol no I do not have a little one on the way! I quite like the golfs in a 5 door, and it also makes transporting people and items easier which I occasionally have to do lol

Indeed craig the tidy detuned S3 lump with a K04s turbo on it 8)

The DSG box on it is truly incredible - such smooth shifts as its two individual gearboxes, one serving 1 3 and 5, the other serving 2 4 and 6 and each has its own seperate clutch so you end up with an instantaneous upshift or downshift. Sequential gear stick or paddle shift as you wish too - bloody good fun!

Gorgeous car! Very nice! The mk5 is defiantly my favourite out of the golfs... Well other the mk2s I attually hate golfs. But I've always had a massive soft spot for the mk5s
And it's probably the best gti VW have come up with IMO.
Glad to hear the polo is staying in safe hands too

Alex, the golf looks sweet.

My point was once he has the keys will he change bits? Maybe some nice halfords wheels?
