That's what mine looked like a year and a half ago  :smiley:. Definitely a good base, and one of the best colours IMO

Well, just been to collect this....60 quid for tyres bumper, fog grills and fog lights :-) (already had the grill)



Looking at lowering, but its my daily and has to be useable...also ferries my baby about ( hence 5 doors).  So thinking lowering springs, good lows combined with comfort/good ride??? Any advise???

Also want GTI interior, wheel, gear knob etc....and of course a bit of a map lol= poverty

Great start up car. And great plans also. I had a 140 GTTDi a while ago. See my signature for my build thread. So much you can mod on these cars. Enjoy!
