Lupoboz Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 Hi Super-Luce,The build quality, handling and speed will be a vast improvement compared to your old Fiesta. Not that I've got anyhting against them, lol.I do hope all goes according to plan and you get the GTi as they are smashing little cars as I had one up until a few months ago when I sold mine.I can supply new rear badges if need be.Good Luck and enjoy!Regards, Dale.

Super-Luce Posted August 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 Aw thanks very much Dale.I think i'd be after a rear black VW badge, the boot is completely smooth and has no indent for a badge though,dont know if that makes any difference to which badges i can get?I also really hope everything goes to plan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 I had an 8 hour drive for mine, was so nervous going down and the drive back was definitely an experience I wont forget! Even over a year on everyone at work is amazed by how much I love it, parked it up in work yesterday night and gave it a quick wipe down and they were like 'Pete you've had it about a 18 months now and you still look after it and smile looking at it as the 1st day you turned up in it!'Hope you have the same experience with yours!
