2006 VOLKSWAGEN GOLF

2006 Wolkswagen Golf MK5 GTI Track Car / Sleeper. Stage 2+ approx. 375 bhp. Looks standard.

I spent 3 years and over £14,000 perfecting this car, now Regrettably selling due to shoulder injury meaning I need an automatic.

The previous owner (at JBM Performance) did all the engine work, clutch and exhaust. He then got a job abroad, so I bought it and finished the project Including new sills, wings and door skins, a full respray, new suspension, brakes, wheels and tyres. The result is amazing. It was set up for trackdays by Tuned UK who also polybushed the front and fitted new rear arms, but can easily be set up for road use if required.

Recently I changed the suspension all round to AP Coilovers for road use at a cost of £700. The Gaz Shocks Gold I originally fitted for trackdays come with the car.

I have deliberately kept this car looking standard because I got fed up of getting pulled in my previous track cars.
