Hey guys!

Well about 6 hours a go I bought my first car - none other than a Mk3 Golf.
(I'll upload pics of it in the right section after I give it a wash on the weekend)
It can't stand next to some of the ones you guys have got on here, but it looks pretty decent and am confident it'll handle my needs easily.
I've had my licence for a week now, loving the extra freedom.

I live in the Sutherland Shire (Southern Sydney), and will complete my HSC next year. I have a passion for music - mainly listen to alternative rock-type artists. And ummm....... yeah. My name's Bryan haha

Welcome aboard fellow youngen, I too own a mk3 as my first dub (even though mine's a fatty mk3 ;)) and despite how much crap this thing gives me I'm loving it. Hope you enjoy the forums!

I'd love to say I drive manual (and a VR6) but my learning conditions didn't permit so I'm stuck to autos for the time being

dude where abouts in the shire are you from? I'm from menai.

The first mod i recommend is an oversized southern cross sticker on the rear window! It will look wicked, and really separate you from the crowd! :biggrin::biggrin: :wasntme:

Welcome mate, I too had a mk3 for my first car and only sold it last saturday. It was hard to see it go as it was/they are a great little car.

Enjoy your stay here mate, familiarise yourself with the Mk3 section and remember that there are heaps of people here with usefull info for you.
