Well I have owned 3 golf R32's in the past then went the 4x4 route which was a bad move, dull as dishwater.... A few miles in the mps and I was hooked, can't wait to pick this car up and enjoy.will post some photos when I pick it up and looking for some advice on what's next to do to it. Based in Aberdeen and have seen a few of them kicking out about and they look smart

Well I got the call today I didn't really want. The dealer has put the car through an mot and says the mechanics have picked up a fault with the turbo. On the upside I suppose I should be grateful it's getting fixed foc as it's from a mazda dealer but the downside is have I bought a bad egg. 2010 model with only 15k on the clock. The guy says I can still pick up the car on Friday but they want it back in 2 weeksto repair
