Welllllll have been on the forum a couple years used to have an old mk4 polo which i loved :
Was a great car had it for 2 years never a problem
Then couple months ago i decided i wanted a starlet gt turbo ep82 ( many of you will be angry but it was something i had to buy ! was rapid and enjoyed it for all of a month and as you do i got THE GERMAN BUG
doubled my money what i spent on the car
and here i am ...........
There is some small niggly bits that will need doing first passenger seal has taken a beating being so low drivers side pillar has a couple dents and back quater has a small dent front bumper has a small scratch this will all be resprayed
Aero Wipers
Bonnet Bra
Currently has Gmaxx Coilovers lowered around 70mm
Pipercross induction kit more than likely coming off
Bought it this evening id like to say a BIG THANKYOU to Endi_GTi who came and viewed the car with me. Great friend who looked over the car with me and used his vag com to give it a little check. Great laugh to travel with and Maccy ds eating champion !
Look forward to detailing it and getting it looking cleannnnn
Wheel suggestions welcome i fancy ronals or bbs rims
GOOD TO BE HOME :

Very Nice Mate
Matt said his mate had just bought a GTI so i'm glad you have started a new thread
As for the wheels you cant go wrong with Ronal's or BBS really, my favourites for the GTI are the Ronal LS rims though
I have a set of 16" RXII's for sale at the moment if they take your fancy

Soooooooooooooooo...... Just been tinkering with the gti today adding little things which most people have done
Red trim around the grill and some wolfsburg surrounds ready for stamped plates from dubshack dan
The badge was black and i will more than likely buy a new oem one later on but when i went to wet and dry the badge back to give it a lick of paint but after spitting some paint on by accident i thought it looked cool so just messed about with it instead
also liked the imprint on the table after i sprayed it haha
The engine bay was looking abit sorry for himself as it had an induction kit jammed on the top so i have put the oem air box and gti surround back on and temp put the induction pipe back on
also got to tempted to spit some paint on the lead cover and give the leads a lil clean
THE BIG EXPENSE OF THE WEEKEND WOULD BE THE NEW WHEELS COMING 15INCH ..... I COULDNT TELL YOU UNTIL THERE BACK FROM THE PAINT SHOP VERY EXCITED AND ENDI GTI IF YOU MENTION WHAT THEY ARE I WILL TAKE MY BONNET BRA BACK AND WELD ALL YOUR DOORS SHUT !
