The story

I got this car 2 years ago, its my first and only so far. Being in the motor trade i had worked on a few and had decided i had to have one. So i passed my test and started the search, it took a couple of months but eventually this one popped up for £600 with 77k on the clock i was well happy, i was put off at first after being told it was a 1.0 but decided to go for it anyway. After some heafty insurance quotes i later discovered it was a 1.3 :-D. So having a bodyshop at work i treated it to a mop and it came up like new (well ish), eventually the free interior was added (bonus) and the skirts and arches were sourced off ebay for £30. I then aquired the wheels off a mate for pennies and added the lovely stretched tyres, after some saving the suspension kit was added and the rest as they say is history.

Future mods

• Full jetex system ( v soon hopefully).
• Decat pipe.
• GTi 22mm master cylinder.
• Braided hoses with dot 5.1 fluid.
• Dutch style plates when points allow (long story).

Then I'm going to sit and bide my time untill i can insure and buy a G40, perferably my mates (adeG40).

Cheers Danny.

Very nice! Can you give me a close up pic of the 165/50's on the RA's Please? I'm getting the same mod in a few days! and need to see how bad the stretch is (165/50's on a 7x15!)
