Featured Replies

Hi all

So i have been running the family car for over 2 years now. I now it is time to get back to the old ways! So stopped useing the A4 Avant and have put it up for sale if anyone is interested in it.

So i need a vehicle that i could make look nice, with plent of space in the back for my buisness and that was cheap to run.

And look what i found...... A good mate of mine had this L plate breadVAN 1.0 with tax and test for the wright money so i got it bought.

Paint was as flat as when i got it so got my mate to help me to machine buff it. Will get picks up now it is done. Look 1000 tims better just for a buff.

Got plans of 60/40 phil j kit some nice wheels and half painted bumpers. Just as starters lol

Some pics for you before it was buffed

plans sound good especially the 1/2 coded bumpers, wee set of wheels and some clear front indicators and the black VW badges and it will look class.

Was given a bumped GT with lowered suspension so swapped it across and got some wheels of the bay.

Also took the bumpers off the GT so they will be going to the bodyshop this week for half painting.

Bit of a update on the van.

than took them off as i have been swaping back and forth due to the towbar needing to be on and not wanting to cut the painted bumper.

Currently back on black bumpers and some 13 in 5 spokes will get some pics up of the wheels.

Not sure what way i want to go with the van.

Need opions regarding wheels bumpers etc.

thats starting to look really ace mate! 8-) nice work.

i like the 13s shape more but prefer the 14s size as they fill the arches nicer.

14's look a better fit imo...

like kam said i want van panels now !!

liking this bready, the 14s work really well imo.

I agree with Richard, 13s look better but 14s are the better size. Sell both sets and invest in some nice 14s :lol:

**goes on ebay to try and find a mk3 van**
