Ladies and gentlemen ( are there any ladies on here?) I have recently acquired a blaze GTi-6 upon which I could go on and on about as I have wanted one since 1997 and of recent years have been unable to find a decent one. Anywho, I am now the very proud owner of a 6. I have owned several "hot hatches" over the years, Williams Clio mk1, 16v Clio, 306xsi, 306s16, 5gt and recently a 106 gti which I owned for 6 years and rebuilt over that time while it was also my daily drive, I eventually and reluctantly sold this as my wife kept reminding me that I am 6'3" and 17stone oh and that I had two children. In the interim I had a mgzt 190 (water pump went) and a 1997 polo l 1.4 with a cassette player and wind up windows. This just failed its mot as it was rotten so needing a new car I checked auto trader and two miles away was the 6. Rest is history.
And I am rambling.
Do we have anything on the site showing where members are? Would be good to know who the local guys/gals are. Big grin

    It is a bit low. I will upload some pictures when I work out how from my mobile.
    I was dubious about the height at first but it is on Bilstein dampers and seems to handle really well.
    I love itLove

    Still got it. Still love it. I am trying desperately not to throw money at it and just enjoy as it is.
    A couple of weeks ago a range rover TDV8 pulled up alongside me at the lights, and we both went for it, and we were neck a neck up to the top of 4th gear at which point I let him pull in front of me. He was as shocked as I was as we both assumed we would blitz each other.
    this has left me in dire need of more power. So I keep trawling eBay for bargains.
    best car I have owned thus far! Shame about the colour Big grin
