Title: EURO LOOK MK 1
Post by: GemGTI on 06 March 2005, 14:36

Hi, I have just purchased a Golf Mk1 and I was wondering if it is possible to give it a euro look like this one below I found on the Gallery.

If so could you let me know what parts I need to buy, from the example (above) I only know the DTM mirrors and single wiper conversion. Also could you please post some pics or links to pics of euro Mk 1's

Cheers

Joe

That's my take on it too Dinx. I'd say that the mk1 above was more Euro look than the mk2 though. :undecided: That mk1 looks damn sweet and  :cool:

lol, Aye Dinx, think you might be right there actually, so is the mk1 more retro than Euro then, or is retro the new Euro or vice versa, or are they the same thing  :undecided: Oh I dunno, what was the question again ?  :grin: :grin: :grin:

I wouldn't of classed the mk2 in the first pic having that euro look. it's on 17's to start with!

Sorry for the wrong title. It's called euro in the gallery. Is it a Brit look then?

Post by: ...joe on 14 March 2005, 20:27

guess so. i think brit look is a sort of euro look with 17's and looking a bit more agressive!! god knows! euro look is evolving all the time and i wouldn't like to say what each style is by definition for fear of getting caught out!!!
its nice whatever style you want to call it!
