Just thought I`d share some pics of a 7yr old GTI. My dub turned 100k miles today so I gave it a nice detail:

Basically I used the Porter Cable (though not today)
A coat of Klass and two coats of Megs #16.
I touch up the wax after each weekly wash. (yes I wash every weekend)
Absolutely beautiful:xyxthumbs
I love how black cars look when they are
taken care of. BTW, are those ABT rims I see there?

awesome car man.. im a VW nut myself. i have a 20th anniversary. but i had 2 Mk3`s before and i would die to have another one again. paint is looking fantastic too. i think you should put on the euro vr6 front spoiler.. it would really set it off.

Hey thanks. So you like the MK3 better than the MK4s? How so?
I would think the MK4s are more refined though a bit roomier.
