I bought this car from a guy in Glasgow about 5 months ago.I was

looking really tatty when i went to see it but the genuine 47k miles

and the fact that it had a FULL VW sevice history right up to 36k

swung it for me and i was amazed when the guy took £50 for it.

So i set about cleaning it up and getting it ready for it's MOT.It just

needed a service and a small weld done on the drivers side sill to pass.

I put some new mirrors on and hauled out the old alarm....

Then i cleaned up the wiper arms,painted them and fitted new blades...

And then fitted a set of BBS Ra's from my G40 today....

I know it looks as if it's on stilts and the suspension is the next on the list.

Any comments,good or bad are welcome.... :-D

Looking well nice.. a bargain!! :)

this is looking really smart scott!! i love it mate... some lowerage, sweet!

Thats a bloody bargain if ever I saw one!

Looks to have cleaned up really nicely. Personally I'd loose the pinstripes up the sides and I actually rather like original alloys but it still looks very smart indeed.

Of course it could do with being hit with the lowering stick, but hey you haven't gotta go mad.

Very nice car, especially for the money.

Sublime, I want the exact same colour/wheel combination if I ever get another Mk2.

Give it -40mm on a good kit and look for some engine enhancements.

By the way, how much of a pain was extracting the old alarm? Got the same quantum device on mine and I need shot of it to make room.

I've removed a few alarms and immobilisers. That its never taken more than half hour explains why,though if they did a good job with fitting,you may need a soldering iron. Lookin nice with those wheels,defo agree with Danny on the 40mm drop,it'll look just right. I think they're the best S seats,just a case of sourcing a scrap passenger one to restore the worn drivers side.

Not mine anymore ....sold to Toby.

Yep mine now
