THE GTS

She is a 1996 Emaerald Green VW Golf GTS 1.8 MP9
she has 180 000km on the clock and is stock standard up to now.

I am the third owner and the previous owner had it for less than a year.

The day i got her she was in mint condition and the first time i got into her the rivet on my jeans tore a hole in the seat.
A few days after i bought her i struck a tire thread on the highway and my lip got a chip in it and a month in a little boy kicked his rugby ball into the back of my car leaving a small dent.

She has two trophees behind her name one for Show 'n Shine and one for Jamboree both of them 3rd place (in her class) but next year me and her is going for gold.

Here is some pics of her after I bought her, this was before anything was done or anything. Still Standard wheels and broken lip.
