Hi,

Took the golf up on the moors over Oxenhope today.

Damn it was freezing, managed to get a few pictures though...

Looks good

You are brave taking that road though, that's the one that goes to Oxenhope isn't it? Proper rough, although looks slightly filled in now, I never used to go further than the windmills in my own car.

 

[Alan]

Good pics.. Xenons?

 

[Matthew]

It gets worse Mike the further you go down!

No Xenons

 

[jenic]

I know, I used to take the van!

It's a shame because after the rough bit it's an interesting little section of single track road

No Xenons

Second hand OEM from eBay?

 

[Matthew]

Honestly can't be bothered Alan TBH.

I was never that fussed about Xenons in the Clio.

Needz lowz and stance.

undrivable = cool.

 

[_Tom]

Mapped yet?

 

[Matthew]

Nope ha

Lovely motor

Looking nice. I've not been on that road (if you can call it a road!) for years.

Have you not seen the offset on the wheels?

Fat as f**k Jim lad. Does need some H&Rs though.

Its fun when it snows! Propper exposed up there.

i don't normally like these but yours looks ace :approve:

is it lowered and spaced?

normally these look a bit bland for a hot hatch

The wheels are Mk6 Shadow Monza reps with a lower offset.

I thought it was running spacers when I bought it!

Still OEM suspension though.

 

[Knuckles]

so, they're replicas of VW wheels but with a bigger offset? *sorry if thats a stupid question lol)

suprised at OEM suspension, it looks spot on

 

[Matthew]

Yeah the MK6 GTI has the same wheels as the MK5 just the inserts are coloured in black.

The previous owner must have swapped them over.

They do sit nice though

 

[Kieran..]

Do love these! I want one some day

 

[Jason_E]

Yay MK5 Friends. Prefer the smaller wheels myself, but do love the black. Xenons are for blind old people anyway . These cars don't need stance! They are perfect as they are standard.
