hi all would just like to say thanks to everyone that helped why i had my g60 this is a great forum and i will still be on hopefully to lend a hand. Right where the fun starts as you all know i was selling the G i posted her up for sale on thursday everything was going well and i had a buyer lined up for sat everything was going swimmingly took her for m.o.t on sat morn then driving home before i take care to portsmouth to meet the gent that had come from staffordshire i hit this woman at a junction ah B*llocks was one of the worst hours of my life. so limped home assesed the situation and damaged off side wing smashed light bent lower seem under light and broken grill! will post pics asap! anyway i sent the matey a picture on phone rang him up he said dtill bring it over so sold then sunday was better went up to northampton to see simon sweetland you may all know him for his 20v turbo lilac mettalic mk2 golf! his mk2 it is the most amazing immaculate car ive ever seen! it will just make you drool! and i came home with his spanking mk3 vr6 its wheels interior and engine are mint the engine really is solid! a few bits of body work i need to do but i got a very good price on that! I know its been looked after so all good not as quick as the corrado but its so softened the blow of the weekend i had with the C! I was really sad to see the C go on friday but when i'd crashed her on sat it just made me so totally f*cked off! that i dont think her going has really set in yet! only have one good pic but shes nice! -

mate chip and pulley to 68mm wont change appearance at all! this is a good reliable mod for 190bhp! and with the anti lag sns chip this is very good and as for the FMIC if you use the golf g60 hardly any front bumper modification at all mate but i wouldnt worry if you gonna keep it cool for a while! maybe a good idea is to take the charger off put a cone air filter on the end or the charger outlet and start her see how sweet shes running/ticking over do your normal changes air filter oil filter oil fuel filter maybe plugs and leads if you want! then see how she is and then go from there the 8v block is very solid as u prob know so hopefully shell be all fine for you mate! then if she is all fine then consider what you want andy

would anyone like a pic? 2007 marks the 30 anniversary of the original Golf GTI and to celebrate Volkswagen is pleased to announce the launch of the new Golf GTI Edition 30. The new vehicle features a number of styling cues evoking the heritage of the Golf GTI over the last 30 years, including the classic ‘golf ball’ gear knob, together with an upgraded engine producing an additional 30PS. The Golf GTI Edition 30 will be front wheel drive only. New Golf GTI Edition 30 specification The new Golf GTI Edition 30 will benefit from the same high specification as the standard Golf GTI, including six airbags, 2Zone electronic climate control, Electronic Stabilisation Programme (ESP) and automatic coming/leaving home lights. Additionally the Edition 30 will also gain the following items above the standard GTI: Engine • 2.0 T-FSI 230PS (169 kW). Exterior • 18” Pescara alloy wheels (the standard GTI has 17” Monza) • Badge bearing the ‘Edition 30’ logo • Darkened rear light clusters (as seen on the Golf R32) • Body coloured lower spoilers (the lower spoilers on the front, side and rear which are black on the standard Golf GTI). Interior • Heated front sports seats, with ‘Interlagos’ cloth and ‘Vienna’ leather side bolsters • Leather steering wheel with ‘GTI’ logo and red stitching • Unique interior trim • Door sill strip with ‘Edition 30’ logo • Golf-ball design gear lever • Unique floor mats with red edging. Volumes The Golf GTI Edition 30 will be limited to 1,500 units. Unlike the previous GTI Edition 25 the vehicles will not be numbered. Colours The Golf GTI Edition 30 will be available in a limited range of colours as follows: • Black • Candy White • Tornado Red • Diamond Black pearl • Reflex Silver metallic • Steel Grey metallic. got told about this, just this mornbing so rang up my kind friend at vw! and he supplied me with this 2mins later on email allocation is 1 to each dealer factory order from the 2nd november first out will be a confirmed friday 12th january

Differing attitudes of dealers - UPDATED with some sad news
iow_corrado_g60 replied to Andy665's topic in General Car Chat
sorry to hear this Andy At least you can be in the warmth that his last few weeks with you were hopefully some of your and his fondest must of cheered him up no end and you are in the safe knowledge that he passed away a very happy and loved father. -
ewan will you ever want more power from it if so put that into the equation now get your chip smaller pulley and staged charger done as it will work out alot more in the long run. i.e if you re new charger you will of spent £500 then if you want it staged at a later date with rebuild will coat u the best part of £900 as for re-builds i dont think it matters how many times they get done unless its grenaded like your current! give it a spray every few weeks with some ptfe lube from g-werks too that will keep it all nice!
