My MK3 Golf 1.6 ! First Car Had To Be A Dub ! EURO

Featured Replies

So i always wanted a mk3 golf since one of my friends had one a few years back, and in January 09 I Blew almost all my wages that month on one, A mk3 Golf 1.6cl in a metallicy blue/purple, She was in pretty good nick for her age. N Reg had no rust just a dent on the bootlid but apart from that she was good, 97,000 on the clock. They guy wanted £850 but i managed to get it for £600. i didnt care, i drove 84 miles with my mate to see it and i wasnt going back as a passenger lol.

So heres how she looked....

So i had a few ideas of what i wanted to do, angel eyes, sound system, alloys etc.

Then one of my friends showed me the 'Euro Look' At first it didnt appeal to me then i just fell 4 the euro look.

wanted to Dub it out, but I'm still 17 and dont earn a great deal so i started off with the small bits,

Got rid of the front grill with the fog lights and put in a debadged grill i got off ebay ....

Then went and got clear side repeaters & some new crystal smoked rear lights....

i thought it was a bit different, and looked okay so i left it.

Then i was going to get the Chrome VW Alloys in 17" but there so Common so decided for something Euro...

So picked up Some Ronal Turbos off here....

Then i was going to wait to fit them until i slammed the car because it would look stupid lol but 2 days before i was getting her slammed i couldnt wait and put them on...
