i think i would have had Lee at plush do the inside if it was mine as that is not good at all  :confused:

Mods yes but way too many to stick in this little box

Interior killed it for me - yes leather under the hood = potential fire hazard  :stupid:

I don't know if it is leather under the hood? :confused:

Looks painted to me.

It would be much better stripped out and a few carbon fibre bits in there. Then the engine taking to stage 3 with.....errr........maybe a GT2871R turbo kit :innocent:.....now where can you get hold of one of those :grin:
Golf R gone.

My quilt covers got less ripples and creases than that dash board and I'm a bloke which means I can't really make a bed properly. Or thats what the wife keeps telling me! :laugh:

I have seen this in person at the Edition38 show and althought alot of effort has gone into the car, it misses out on the details and the trim needs a fair bit of work to bring up to the standard it should be of a car like this.
