After taking the dubious decision to sell my beloved W8 Passat and not being able to find an RS4 Avant with the required combination of colour, spec and price I settled for this little gem. A one owner 2010 GTI with DSG gearbox and only 30k miles!

I already have a set of xenon headlights in the boot and a new Kenwood HeadUnit waiting in work to be installed!

Apologise for its condition, it travelled 350 miles today most of which was spent behind nearly every HGV travelling to Cairnryan! I'll post better pics when I get time to give it some tlc!

Lovely motor. The grey suits them really well.

Cloth or leather?
Cloth mate.

Looked at a red one in Lisburn with leather and better spec at the same money but double the miles!

What colour is the one you're going for Pete?

The xenons seem to be plug and play, removing the bumper looks to be the hardest part of the whole job. If the weather holds over the weekend I'll have a go fitting them!

i got a red one, 59k full leather, 18" monzas and the RNS510 unit, basically the spec i wanted for the money.
there was the other one form Nottingham but they were arse holes to work with so i lost interest

interesting, although wouldnt be up there on the list of things to do to it lol

Its the rear LED's which require coding I believe!

Lovely looking car. Fuelling set up is better on these than the MK5 if you start to tinker and modify (y)

You have to do some form of coding for the headlights. The company I got them off sent me through instructions how to do it!

Very nice mate. I thought the Passat was keeper?
So did I Steve! Was tempted with the possibility of upgrading to an RS4 Avant so sold it then couldn't find a suitable RS4!:sob:
