Welcome to the world of VW!!!

coilies, wide 13's, leave the stripe cos that adds caracter but yeh, bin the brow thingy.

300 sounds like a bargain pal, look after it

Looks good. Too early to be a Coupe S though.

The eyebrows are going be the firsttt to go! I can gaunteeee!

Badgeless grill perhaps?

Only 70k on the miles so I've gott a winner there then?

Obviously first time for Vwdubs I'm looking to start my new motoring world with this one :thumbsup:

alright mate, looks pretty tidy. whats been said tbh.

and i can guarantee that the best way to decide what to do to it mods wise would be spend some time on here before doing anything. look through the galleries, read some threads etc. i was a lurker on here for a few months after i got my car and i learnt a lot about what i liked and what i didnt.

Ellooo ellooooo!

Don't spose any of you can help with my oil pressure problems too?

Light keeps nerrrrr'ng at me and changed the oil pressure switch oil level is ok but no success?

Just so you know dude oil level will have nothing to do with your oil pressure

howdy

well to some extent the oil level will have something to do with oil pressure if there is none in, id change the oil for fresh oil, and then get a pressure tester on it, that will tell you if it actually does have pressure issues, or if it is just an electrical issue

Ok....i didnt mean quite if there is no oil init :lol:

But there are a number of problems you could potentially have if the is pressure issues.

But as said your best bet would be to get a pressure tester on it

I'd keep the stripe, looks cool :)

Collies, nice wide 13's, badge-less grill.

But first off, just a good clean, and get the bumpers and arches looking black again, makes such a difference!

I'm pretty jealous that you got it for £300 to be honest!

Have fun!
