f**king love it mate but if it was mine. I would loose the bra.
White is best colour to mix things up. I would defo do the wheels red and polish the lips and do the grill white with red badge and have the door handles white too. Then for me it would be perfect

plans are loose bra yey! remove and paint door handles , bike carbs on the 1400 as the injection system is doing my head in and its a slug , decat and exhaust wind deflectors. vents instead of fogs in the bumper

possibly put rear spoiler on 

its a great cheap runner

but im not impressed with the mpg

could be due to how its running tho

thanks guys will keep you updated

And be cheaper to put a gti lump in than fitting bike carbs

Looks like a good base for tweaking.  Id lose the bra,  paint the grille,  lose the red pinstripes on the wheels and get shot of the hairdryer beneath the bonnet for starters.

Thought they only went to 250bhp?

Plus fuel has gone up. £10 used to get me 12 litres, now £20 gives me 14 litres.

Your golf might not be running right. And carbs will kill your mpg.

My 1.8 se does 60 miles on £10 (7.6L) always no matter how its driven , my 1.4 was even better need to get that on vagcom see what's happening with your engine

The saab is an aero hit with noob tune remap 3" downpipe and exhaust from maptun and free flow Intercooler and recorcircliating DV from. Abbot racing pulled 277 on the dyno

Anyway the golf

Ye Iv orderd a u281 and 2x2 converter to plug it it

And I know these are supposed to be slower than the mpi but its a lot slower real slug lol

But this one is also only a 4 speed but Wierd
