New to water cooled, but not vee dubs

[Brumma]

Hey all,

I'm Eliot from Sydney, I drive a '91 Golf GTI Mk2 which I've had for the last couple of months. This is my first water cooled VW and I love it already. I used to drive a '74 Beetle 1300 a few years ago. I've been carless for the last year, but now I have wheels again, I'm keen to talk VW's on the forum.

Cheers,

Eliot

welcome eliot,

Keen to see some pics of you GTI.

Thanks Silver dub,

I haven't had a chance to take any photos of it since I bought it, but here's a picture of it before I picked it up:

Mk2 GTI's looks really good in white.

So have you got any plans to change or modify anything?

[Brumma]

Thanks, at the moment its my daily drive. There are a few things it needs done electronics wise, so will get all that fixed up, but in the long run I'd like to slam it and get some new wheels.

Tidy car, glad you picked this one up mate.

Thanks guys,

Got a more recent photo here


and had a bit of a play around in photoshop to get an idea of what Hella Magic Colours would look like (might do it one day)

Very tidy looking Mk2.

Be careful of the green tail lights. I uesd to have blue ones on a car I purchased and they were a massive piggy magnet. Took them off and never got pulled over.

Thanks for the warning. That's a pity. I might not do it, but just interested to see what they look like. Will be putting coilovers on it in the next few months.
