Just put 12 Months MOT on it,

Has had both the rear springs replaced (one was cracked)

Some welding taken care of next to the filler neck on the fuel tank

A few advisories, the most important being that two of the yokohoma tyres are coming near to the legal limit.

Again, I'm looking for swaps on either a nice daily (Moved place of work so don't want to be stacking the mileage on this), something like a passat TDI?

Or something bigger such as a scirocco, jetta or golf.

Cheers.

px towards my golf? :p

1998 A4 1.8 petrol?

Any chance that we could see some pics of the interior? I've been looking for something new for a while now, kind of have my heart set on a 9n TDI, but i'm seriously tempted by this mk3. Thanks, Alex.

No thanks mate, but too big and thirsty.

Gonna be taking the 268 camshaft and the corrado seats now, can't come on the RA's and yokos as the tyres are shredded after the CP track day. This means the car will have to come on a miss-match of steel wheels, or you bring your own.

I will also be replacing the front driveshafts as these have started knocking etc, the car will come with ARB Blocks and a full stainless exhaust system that sounds great, hangs a bit low but will try and sort this out.

It also has rear 6N coilovers.

Price: £850

Cheers

was gona offer my golf if wheels was on :/

NO SWAPS!!!!!

I must have contacted you about 10 times whilst it was up for swaps regarding your golf but got nothing back.

what did he just say ? lol

  • Author

FFS, i am only interested in cash.

By the way, this will now be going into my lock-up before i sell it. I want to give it a good going over and sort a few bits out. I will update as to what exactly has been replaced etc, and what is no longer on the car etc.

It will also be back on the BBS RA with 175/50R13 yokohoma tyres, i think two of these are right on the edge of legailty in terms of tread depth (though they would still out perfrom a brand new set of nankangs, litterally), two of them are OK for a few more thousand miles.

Cheers
