[mainline 2 1 Cars]

Sold my 205 1.6 GTI which I've owned since 2007. Absolutely gutted. Definitely the best car I've owned, and its outlasted and seen off a few replacements over the years that didn't eclipse it in the driving department.

 

I want to say a big thanks to all the people on here for their advice, cheap parts, encouragement, banter and support.

 

Owning a 205 GTI has been a great experience and I have sold mine onto a really good guy who I am sure will look after it.

 

I know for absolutely certain that I will own another, just need to get my new house sorted and live a different life for a while.

 

Again, thanks to the community, I have owned other classics, and it can be a cold and lonely place knocking on the door of a closed shop because you are the wrong age / sex / whatever and this community is different!

 

I will be checking back. Thanks again.

Hi All,

 

I'm the proud new owner of Mainline's fine pug, it's first trip in my hands was the 140ish miles back to Cambs and it was as sweet as a nut

 

The car has been in a fine pair of hands for the past few years, looks great and I will keep it that way with tender spannering and lots of polish! I'm sure you will see me popping in for my steep learning curve

nice to see another Cambridge owner, well done on the choice of car.
