Title: Hi All
Post by: .Pat on 28 April 2012, 13:41
Hi guys, I'm a member over on UK-Mkivs under the username Dubbed_bora but thought I would say hello as I have heard good things about this site  :smiley:

Some may have seen my Old Bora it was only a 1.6 but had full Airlift suspension with digital autopilot V1 digital managent and was on genuine RS's

I got bored of the lack of power and decided to strip it and sell up, which leads me on to the current car, its a 04 mk4 GTI (AUM), I have had it for almost a year most of which was collecting parts but over the last month or so it's all come together.
Engine wise it's still standard as coming from a 100bhp to 150 is more than enough to keep me entertained for a while lol
As the Bora was it is on Airlift XL's but this time is running Accuair E-level, the wheels are OZ Futura's; 9j fronts and 9.5j rears  :cool:

Nice Bora there.Pat.  I had a Derv one once  :lipsrsealed:

Always thought they were far better looking than the Golf.

Thanks dude, I still think I made a mistake when I got rid of it.


Just made a build thread for the Golf - Link here (http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=229828.0)
And a build thread on UK-MKIVS for the Bora if anyone is interested - Link here (http://uk-mkivs.net/forums/t/364819.aspx)
