Had to read it 3times..Why!!!!

[sub39h]

accident smash and he bought it back from the insurance company before it was written off?

only car i'd consider "Mk6-ing" would be the R32, and then only if i had the money to turbocharge it as well. but then i'd probably ask myself why i didn't buy a Porsche for the same money (and no doubt andrewparker would be asking me why i didn't buy the M135i  )

[andrewparker]

The only thing I'm thinking is that I like the MK6 in Estoril Blue!

[pitsirikas]

Why...???

[GTI-Pirelli]

 

And after all of that work and money , why on earth would you not get some LED rear lights?

[Deako]

So do the Mk6 rear lights go on if you change the tailgate? C pillars are the same?

Probably been smashed and was offered a Mk6 cheap, or found one being broken.

only the roof is the same i believe. the rear wings have to be cut out and new ones welded in

plus i recall reading somewhere that Mk6 door cards don't fit on Mk5 doors, so i assume the reverse is true and he had to change bits of the interior as well

[Deako]

Jeez. So its been a lot of work. He'll have had to weld on the Mk6 rear 1/4s as well.

[tony_danza]

That stinks to high heaven. Properly bent car.

[R32UK]

... beacause they are basically the same car anyway

[Eddie-NL]

I like the bit in the ad, just been serviced. Could you imagine booking that in at vw

we can't find you mk5 golf in the car park
