Said I'd finally put up a thread since I've been lurking for a while. Have had a few projects over the years but the first that sparked it all off was this car about four years ago. Unfortunately I sold it because was getting a bit expensive to run especially with city driving. Saw it come up recently for good money and decided to bite the bullet and get her back, and I'm glad I did.
Colour won't be to everyones taste, a bit "Fast and the Furious" but I'm gonna work with it for a while until I decide what colour I'm going with.
It has a 2.0 8v GTI engine with a TSR Pack "C" head and Kent cams which gives it a nice bit of grunt but I think the engine is gone as far as it can go without spending crazy money (and most likely not even breaking the 200bhp barrier) so I picked up this donor car recently
Can't get over the VR6 noise and torque, very happy with it. Crappy pics in the shed but will bring her out next week for some better pictures and should have new wheels by that time too.
Let me know what ye think :-)
