Title: National mk2 meet pics
Post by: Khare on 10 May 2009, 19:28
Well this weekend i went along to the national mk2 meet at the billing aquadrome in northampton. Cracking show, it was first year running, but it made an awesome debut.
Most of the cars there were unbelievable, and saw one of 72 G60 limited editions there, was stunning!
All my pic sin my photobucket account.

g60 ltd is minted but it's a shame it looks as though no one has driven it.

Noted.

As Sharpie says, it's not a G60 'Limited Edition' it's a Golf Limited - VW Motorsport tweaked Syncro high-tunnel shell, G60 16V motor, with 210bhp.  71 made, making it properly rare, not like a common-as-muck Rallye, which is just an homologation special.

as gjroe said  :lipsrsealed: :lipsrsealed: :lipsrsealed:


clutch cable came off the clutch release lever due to the clip coming off. RAC man bodged it up for me and works a treat now. Need to buy genuine clip though.
