Title: Hey hey!
Post by: jonz on July 04, 2008, 02:19:24 PM
Hey guys,

I'm Johnny (23) and I now roar around the streets of Auckland (central) in an '89 205 gti 1.9. It went to hospital when I got it but everything is pretty much sorted and running well now!

Absolutely love it so far and I got it with decent sounds to boot (2 amps, 6 x9's and a 15")!

Stoked I was directed to the site - catch you all later!

Johnny

(not sure about uploading photos - I'm no Gates! Can't get on photo-bucket - any help appreciated)

Clutch is already sorted - was so keen to get it running I handed it over to the mechanic as I'd be learning how to do it as I go! Thanks for the offer my friend - just checking out other people's cars atm! See my new pug has already got a mention on the forums - something about repeaters - hadn't noticed them but see what you guys mean!

I'll bring some pliers then it won't matter what he has! :P

Cheers - Right now I'd rather throw 3 grand into getting the car looking like new! No one put spf15 on the roof so that needs sorting and maybe the leather upholstery could do with more cow!

I'm gonna end up spending a lot of money with this encouragement! Think I'll enjoy it for what it is for the time being (we've only just been introduced) and then look into turning it into a monster - could be a while yet!

Do you guys all meet up? Where are most people from?
