New member with a 6, hi! - Smartyc - 21-03-2015

Hi all!

I bought my Gti-6 about 18 months ago and am of course loving it!
A bit different to the 205d that I had in the early 90's!

Cheers!

Your cars looking good mate! Very similar to mines, although you've got a nice exhaust on yours. Smile

Welcome ......

RE: New member with a 6, hi! - Smartyc - 22-03-2015

Thanks guys.

Plans are... Gradually, due to finances, replace all the worn out bits, mildly upgrading where appropriate. Already put Kayaba ultra sr dampers on it, with new top mounts up front. Also standard Mintex everything all round plus braided hoses and good new fluid. New 2.25" cat back stainless system from Charlie at Pro Speed in Cardiff, which sounds just right outside the car, varying between quiet and loud inside!
Other than that, just getting on top of it and enjoying it when I can.
Ultimately, I want to enter the standard road-going class in hillclimb and maybe sprints. I've done some before the kids arrived, a long time ago, and some Prescott school days. Hoping to get some runs in at Pugfest and/or the Prescott Revival.

Need to find more opportunities for blasts on local and Brecon Beacon roads this summer.....

Hope u get that sorted soon. I know a great 'one man' mech near Chepstow, if u need help...
I can't make a major time commitment, as I'm in Round Table, etc etc... and in any case, I'm not into showing, but prefer driving... know what I mean? ;o)
I hope to get to Pugfest for some runs up Prescott. Did a couple at another event last summer - just after a downpour!

RE: New member with a 6, hi! - Matt-Rallye - 01-04-2015

Aha pugrun is all about the driving! no showing involved Big Grin
