Very nice example  :drool: I'm thinking of going down this route next year. Need some vr6 soundtrack in my life. People say that the mk4 has a very 'soft' chassis compared to the mk5.. do you think so?

Cheers. I don't find the chassis soft at all tbh, drove a 1.8t and that was very wallowy feeling.

Regular mk4's are a bit soggy, mk4 R32 definitely isn't  :happy2:

Right so a couple of mini mods today. Black emblems, Mk5 rear wiper, US spec tails and my own plate on.
iPhone ahoy...


Cheers for looking

Did you not loose the plate on one of the many cars you sold? or you had to buy another very similar?

Looks a very nice car... Factory xenons as well  :smiley:
Thanks. All R32s have xenons from the factory as do the Mk5s

I stand corrected... I had a 02 mk4 150 gti diesel that had xenons and in them days that was a very expensive option.

Yes, I had the option as well in my X reg GTi and that was an extremely expensive option back in 2000 - I loved the way with the xenons you get the dual indicators in the lenses  :drool:

Is the rear wiper swap for the mk5 arm a straight swap? Does the washer cap need trimming much? I wanna get a mk5 rear wiper for my mk4 estate.

Lovely R BTW  :happy2:

Yeah, straight swap. May need a couple mm trimmed off the lower edge of the cap.
