Windscreen out ready for rust repairs

Need to find a bolt on exhaust system if anyone knows of any, had to ditch the straightpipe as its far too loud for a daily.

    Big bill for that amount of rust :( hope it is done to a high standard though. Car looks good, just a subtle lowering kit will finish it off nicely. Also refreshing to see not everyone with a bread

Bit of an update !

17th birthdays just been and I've got a load of Meguiars gear to detail the car

Allycats are off to get new tires and all the rust is gone.

I'm swapping my awful straightpipe for an -80mm lowering kit but i probably wont put it on for a little while

really clean looking car

Have you had it detailed on the interior? Seat looks so clean!

Steering wheel suits it down to the ground too.

Seats are just clean, 22k and alll

This looks magazine-worthy. Those last photos could be quarter century old. We need more MK2's out and about looking like this.

Cheers man, I appreciate it !

Polos at a point where I'll probably call it done, all the rusts been sorted, new wheels and tyres and a full sound system to come soon.

I was going to lower it but at my age I really don't want to be dealing the insurance company crap.

Yes really nice

Can you still get the b piller plastic trims ?

My k reg bready has dints on the offside b piller where crims tried to rob her

Think it might be hard to get them out so perhaps cover them up?

Pretty sure you can get those from VW Heritage. Might not be on the online catalogue though, give them a call.

Swapped my AllyCats for some new wheels and -80mm springs with adjustable rears,

stripped the shocks down and rebuilt them ready to go on
