Needs a Northstar V8 across the front to justify those wheels and that exhaust :P
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Well after 2 and a bit years of ownership I thought it was best to

1, change the oil   :shocked:

2, sort the gear linkage  :laugh:

added in a few other jobs to do and headed off to The Diamond Hell, and the helpful Danny P.

so, aswell as the above,

new top mounts fitted without dropping the struts off the hubs  :whistle:

New rear wheel bearings as they where noisey at MOT time.







A right motley crew of Dubs  :grin:

and decided I wasn't loving the G60s on a standard NOn gti Mk2  :lipsrsealed:

So, bargain purchase was made  :huh: not perfect but more than good enough to rock around on



Whats more, they came with decent tyres, and wiill be cleaned properly, waxed and tyres dressed and might get fitted this weekend if I get time  :smiley:
