Surely Not? Two mk1s?

Featured Replies

Some of you have been pestering me all week to do this, you know who you are!!! :ninja:

To be quite honest I actually cant believe what I am about to post for all of your viewing pleasures, I'm genuinly still amazed myself :)

Those of you who know me know about my cars and know I have been extemely lucky to own some amazing examples. Probably the best been my Mk1 GLS. So know your not going to believe the fact that I have only gone and done it again :unibrow:

Up until last week I had a beige mk2 breadvan as my daily driver, right up until I swapped it with a small amount of cash my way for a coupe to be my new daily :) The mk2 is a very early (Yplate) 1.0l coupe in excelent condition for its age with only two previous owners :)

Mk2 2:

Not only did I swap my mk2 last weekend I also managed to pick up another car.......... something that is a whole lot more special to me :)

Yes I have only gone and done it again! Another Mk1, this time a mint one owner from new 81 N with only 38k on the clocks. Its not as mint as my GLS, however I dont intend to use it as a show piece. I'm currently driving the coupe as my daily and allowing my Dad to use the new mk1 as his :)

However as soon as I have paid off some of my student debt and saved abit of money I will be selling the mk2 an using the new mk1 as my daily :shock:

From then onwards I intend to most definately not keep it standard!

mods will include:

Slammage

1.4 16v engine

Early grille

Early bumpers (most likely powdercoate black)

and alot more.....

So yeh, I'm 20 with 3 cars over the age of 27 :shock:

Right now I feel I have blabbed on enought here are some pictures :) However cn I just appologise for the amount :s I just love it :-o :-D 8-):-p

God damn Dan, how the hell do you keep doing it? Next time I go looking for a car, you're coming with me :lol:

Looks pretty sweet and plans sound awesome, is it pretty much what we were talking about at Polo Show last year, sounds tasty :-D

Mods along the lines of this would be amazing, but maybe with some dish :)

dudet that is what I'm doing but more dish and minus the rack!!

You Barstool :lol:

I've been looking for a decent mk1 for months and the few I've seen look as if theyve been stored in a salt mine, one I'm sure had more rust than body. :lol:

lucky swine, make this even better please! :D

Chop the rear beam an inch either side, you could get some nice splits from image wheels and go 5x13 ET38 front with 145/60 and 9.5x13 ET38 rear with 195/45 R13 - that would give dish?
