My old 420GSi
Found these today when I was clearing out some folders. Car was about 10 years old when pics were taken.





Was a cracking car, never missed a beat. Anyone else own one?

Stephen will become famous soon enough
Had a 416 SLI in that shape.


Was a lovely car and it was well built. Would love a GSI Turbo one day

I wanted to get a wedge 420Si after i wrote my first car off.. dad vetoed it saying i would have to pay all insurance, tax and servicing etc.... in the end i could not afford it all so got his choice of 205 diesel....

I had a green 420gsi turbo. Was a nice car but insurance was a killer as i was only 18 at the time.

Think I knew that car - I was always after one.

I test drove a coupe turbo, but didn't get it in the end - worst decision I made carwise.
