Default Impreza -> Saab -> Golf

I've decided to hang up my pipe and slippers and trade in the Saab Conv. Wanted to return to the boy-racer scene but can't afford the petrol what with work being 80 miles away. Found the ideal compromise.......a Golf GTTDiPD150. Awesome car apart from being bright yellow, but I'll get used to that.

So, all you petrolheads out there, got any good URL's ??

Didn't know they made the Golf GTI PD150 in yellow. Come to think of it they don't as standard. Looks like you've bought a lemon.

Look, I know I got it wrong about the STI but thats because some pikehound on here said they did. Now I DO know MK5 Golfs don't come in yellow because my ex Son-in-law has one in black.

Lemon, haha, is that supposed to be funny

Most certainly yellow and most certainly a 150PD. Are you a VW dealer or something as you seem quite certain.

if you want the power of a scoob in your Golf, then put a NOS kit on it, like they did in 5th gear last nite! as it doubled the power of the car!

Already have torque levels higher than a standard scoob. Might think about a Revo Remap, just to spice things up a bit (but not as much as NOS)

Does NOS work the same for Diesel engines???
