VIC New MKV GTI owner from Melbournes West

[VOLK5]

Hi Guys,

My name is Kyne (pronounced Kane) I'm from Melbourne's west and I'm a new owner of a 2007 MKV Golf GTI.

It is the two door variant with sunroof, bi-xenons & light brown leather - does anyone know the official name of this color, so I can stop tossing up between saying the colors tan & beige?

I'm loving every moment of it and has been a big upgrade from a pulsar.

Here is the dealer shot:



I have no major plans for it just yet, apart from possibly a set of coilovers & wheels. I'm currently waiting on the vehicle to transfer from the dealers into my name so I can put my euro plates on and on an aftermarket dvd unit. That is all for now!

I look forward to coming along to the meets and cruises and getting to know the melbourne vdub crew!

Thanks for reading

thanks for the warm welcome mate! where abouts inner west are you? im in the burnside/deer park area?
looks like your sporting an R32? its a shame there arent many GTI's/R32's in our area, most of them are either in the city or in the the other side of town

I seem to recall the stock colour being a deeper red; perhaps it just looks abit lighter in contrast with the dark body paint.

As for the leather, I'd call it "tan".
