last night I finally quit the golf GTi after ten years and bought a 99' Almera GTi.

Its good to see that there is a forum of people keen on the cars, there are loads of VW ones but I didnt expect an almera dedicated one.

Pictures as soon as I work out how to post them, I will have a few questions as the car needs some bits sorting.

I have driven it about 100 miles and I love it already, I drove it back to back with my old Mk3 GTi 16v, it pains me to say it, but the almera is a much more complete car.

Speak to you all soon

Arse End.

So my first question is does anyone know the prices for a GTI front bumper and the foglights to match as they are obviously missing from my car? or if these parts are very expensive is there an aftermarket bumper that looks good?

Any help would be appreciated.

Daz,

I am actually nearer swindon than Oxford, but I try not to admit it. I do spenda lot of time in Oxford though.

Took a chance on the car on the internet, needed a quick solution as my golf is dying rapidly, chose between Almera or Corolla G6, made the right choice I think.

dont blame you mate! :lol: ,

i see that car, he was offering it on here not so long back.
i thought someone might get a bargain there if they didn't mind the bumper grille and light.

apart from the bumper its in really good nick, done 53K backed up by paperwork, definately worth spending a few quid on to sort the bumper.he has already lowered it a little on Eibach springs and new shocks and fitted a K&N cone filter, although I will probably put this back to the standard airbox.

Also the remote fobs need sorting looks like this might be an expensive job.
