Title: Last Mods on my Golf.
Post by: Hulmie on 22 September 2011, 20:07
Well got the car back from the bodyshop last week with the last modification i will be making on the car as its time to sell. Would have really wanted to continue with the project and do everything to it that i had planned but i know have my sensible head on and seel it as it wont get used.

Here's how she looks.

White ones are very rare i think, looks very tidy, how much are you selling it for if you dont mind me asking?
Title: Re: Last Mods on my Golf.
Post by: Hulmie on 22 September 2011, 20:21
Yes original Candy White ones are very rare, not many left the factory in 3 door 1.8T format. Im seeling it for £3300 with alot of tuning mods. See for sale section for details.

Thanks Dave, i wasnt to sure when i bought it if it would look right but i do think it looks well black on white.

My Build thread

231bhp & 238lb/ft Torque - More to come?

I guess not  :sad:

GlWS though dude, selling a very cool car, hope you enjoy your replacement just as much   :afro:

Post by: Hulmie on 22 September 2011, 20:37
yeh your right mate. looks like they didnt come.

not sure on replacement yet as company car arriving tomorrow so in no rush to buy a new one if this sells. have been looking at mk4 r32's, BMW E46 M3, mk5 Edition30, a old Porsche or Escort Cosworth. Some may take some saving

I dont post much on here but I bought some bits off you in the past and would like to wish you all the best mate, she looks fantastic and will be missed! Any plan on staying VAG?

Post by: Hulmie on 22 September 2011, 20:59

Title: Re: Last Mods on my Golf.
Post by: +49 on 23 September 2011, 11:52
One of my fav golf's on her with perfect mods!

Why sell so soon dude? atleast enjoy for another 12months?

But then again I guess getting a  brand new Sirocco as a company car is sweet!!! did you get to pick any options? engine more importantly?Actually  I heard even the TSI is a hoot!

Title: Re: Last Mods on my Golf.
Post by: Hulmie on 28 September 2011, 22:45
tbh mate its time to move it on. gonna have no need for it and would just be in the garage. the car deserves to be enjoyed and seen.

The sad day will be this weekend, will be saying fairwell to not only the car, but also the forum (unless i get the new weekend toy that keeps me on the golf map), but if not then will be a fairwell after a good few years and meeting some interesting people and making friends i would say i will never meet.

As for the Rocco - with it being for work i went fot the GT Tdi 140bhp Bluemotion, with some optional extra's and after 5 days use i love the car, real comfort drive and isnt bad in sports suspension mode, handles really well (lot better than the golf). And it does have other good benefits.  :cool:

Post by: +49 on 02 October 2011, 12:36

Hulmie wens the sirco coming? post us some pictures atleast I really like them  :wink:

Cossie? I do "respect" them for but my money at that budjet it would be a nice E30 M3 :P

Title: Re: Last Mods on my Golf.
Post by: Hulmie on 02 October 2011, 13:18
if i was goning to get a m3 then i wud get a E46 M3 mate. alot nicer on the eyes.

The scirrocco is here mate, had it a week and already clocked up 1000miles.

Nice car but bonnet bra = awful!!
Title: Re: Last Mods on my Golf.
Post by: +49 on 03 October 2011, 01:51
Yeah E46 is a fricking bargain of a car and a great all round car and people forget how great performance cars being so common on of my fav cars ..driven a few..CSL is ultimate :P

I thougth we was talking "modern" classic when escort cossies come into hence my e30 suggestion :P
Title: Re: Last Mods on my Golf.
Post by: Hulmie on 03 October 2011, 22:36
E30's are crap mate. Escort cossie's i like cos of the power and look. Something that will hold money well
Title: Re: Last Mods on my Golf.
Post by: Wazzzer on 03 October 2011, 22:38
You had more power in the Golf than a standard Escos  :grin:

Crap ? paaah.. Did a e36 lump in and there lovly.

They simply look the bollox aswell :D

hold its money? 5-6 years ok "ok" e30's where 5-7k.. now they've literally shot up to twice that.. Half decent evo 2's are 20k plus..

Post by: barrym381 on 04 October 2011, 01:39
dont think you would lose a penny on a nice e30 325i sport or the e30 m3
