I don't know unfortunately,

I bought it with that colour and I have a few body work issues that need to be sorting, So once I get the paint scanned I can let you guys know haha

All I know is it wasn't that blue to begin with!

Mine is a 1.8t 4 motion with k04 turbo and the white is quite rare in 1.8t form had about 20 mk4s now got a couple just now  :smiley:

yeah that's why I bought it, but circumstances made me sell her.

Well it was a act of goodwill really so I found the blue one.

This is my 2nd VW ive owned. Had a few issues but nothing major. door leaks etc.

but all in all its a pretty fun car to drive and does go quite well

Most mk4s have problems with door leaks but all in they pretty easy to sort  :smiley:

The mk4 leather recaro seats are great even better if heated and can pick them up cheap now I broke a mk4 with full r32 interior and bumpers still waiting to get them painted to fit to my blue car or I might just sell the lot 18s are prob better choice for looks  :smiley:
Title: Re: Niliano's Mk4 Golf
Post by: niliano on 05 January 2016, 14:58
yeah I have the standard cloth interior in there now and has 0 rips or tears on it. so in good condition

I like the R32 seats but they are very expensive!

I take it on track now and then as well, so probably stick with the 17's?

but 18's for show days :D

Was your car mapped by r,tech  :smiley:

Post by: niliano on 05 January 2016, 15:07

Not sure if anyone will get better results than r,tech so might be worth a trip back to them  :smiley:
Title: Re: Niliano's Mk4 Golf
Post by: niliano on 05 January 2016, 15:15
its a bit of a trip back

Avon Tuning said they can get 260bhp from it with its next map, which im happy with.

The only thing they noticed is my AFR is very high at idle. Im not amazing with that side of things but from research Avon Tuning are pretty good.

Otherwise I will go back to R Tech

hmmm that's interesting to know :)

I may bring it back. but wont be until I finished all the cosmetic work

hasn't got a spoiler, so I want a nice GTi one, don't know why but my old one didn't have a spoiler either!

fix my front OS wing as its dented.

Got a few dings where it was attempted to be nicked so that's the more pressing issues at present :)
