Well folks, i decided tht i have gone far enough and done pretty much all i want to with my Wide Arched XE (Fors sale by the way) and decided to move on to pastures new!

So I bought a GSi!! And What A Beaut!

Shes a lovely gun metal grey H plate and runs like a dream!
Its done 36k Genuine mileage, with all history to prove!!
Few spots of rust but i have massive massive plans for this baby! So all will be sorted!
Interior is spotless apart from slight damage to drivers side bolster but nothing unusual or expensive to fix!
Engines an absolute dancer! Plugged my diagnostics tester in and it brought back fuck all!! Result!! Oil pressures mint and temp hardly goes above 1/4 on the guage! Pulls like a trin too! Nice solid engine, and very smooth box!
Also included in the package were a new passenger front wing, 5 GSi Alloys, 5 Cavvy GLS Alloys and its been lowered 60mm on shocks and springs!

All in all im very impressed and very pleased with the sum of ?750 that i handed over! But keep your eyes peeled for the WIP!! Im going Euro on this one! Audi handles, Ronal turbos and a few secret touches! I know your all thinking its been done before but the subtle little touches ive got in mind from my Veedub days will make it stand out!!

Anyway, If any body wants any GSi Bits then drop me a PM or a text on 07971201921 and we can sort something out! These include engine,box,loom,ecu,suspension,brakes,wheels,etc etc!!

Ill post some pics of her when its daylight!!!

Stu!

It seems a shame to pull apart a nice gsi, if its in that good condition.

I know what you mean, few about now adays! But i got it at the right prive and its exactly what i want!! It is a shame but i dont think i would have got much better for the same price and a GSi to boot!!

Hate to doubt your genuine mileage, but why would the drivers bolster be worn if its only covered 36k? My old gsi had covered 110k and the bolster was only slightly worn.

If the weathers nice tomorrow ill get some pics up! As for the bolster, i genuinely dont know why its gone after 36k! the mileage is genuine! So i no sure!!

Scott! Im selling My XE as it is and using the cash to buy everything else!! Maybe ill swap bits over i dunno yet. id like to sell it as a package. as for the new one, Im picking up my 45d XE tomorrow for this one so i think u know where im going with this one really!! Not as insane as the other though!! Really nice and smooth and simple! With a twist!!!!
