The ibiza and gti share the same chassis which differs slightly from the vRS.but its not a new chassis really, more like an improved one from the previous model.  Its not independant rear suspension though.

The vRS is an even stranger amalgamation of parts. Its largely the same chassis as previous models but with extra reinforcement, mk4 golf hu, different struts etc amongst other things.

Congrats on your new car Hurdy, it seems I might be getting one soon as a city commute. I am also planning some mods like Revo and maybe ARBs but nothing spectacular as I'm also keeping my Golf wich will become a track car !

Yup, at a price I couldn't ignore too.  :happy2:

Alloy spec that I wanted, exhaust spec I wanted, rear arb and race battery too. Ryan got a great deal and so did I.

I must admit that the condition of all the goods were brilliant too. Cheers Ryan.  :happy2:

Not far off. I just need an intercooler and a few smaller bits and I'll be sorted until Christmas when there may well be further developments  :wink:
