Seems i can't start a project thread so i'll put them here..

Found the car sat at the back of a closing down suzuki dealership in Manacor, Mallorca.
It had been sat there next to several other cars under cover for the last 3 years.
It turned out to be a ex dealer demo car, which had been passed onto the dealers daughter at 6 months old. So its only a 1 owner car plus dealer.
its got 160,00 km on it which is nothing and near full history.

Bearing in mind people dont really care for there cars out here once they get a bit older, i think its in good order and with a little time i'll have it looking as it should. The car is as it left the factory bar a stainless backbox. And thats how its going to stay, more or less.

I've got some Weitec's to go on, and a full set of engine mounts, linkage kit and bushes front and rear.. so that will have it feeling tight once again..


The spec is:

8v AGG
Recaros
Red stitched wheel gear gaitor and handbrake and gearknob (same as the uk anni)
Silver clocks
Smoked lights with front fogs
Vr6 chin
Red badges
16" BBS splits
Red calipers all round
A/C
Twin SRS

Pics to follow

Looks like a nice model.

The closest thing looking to that I have seen (non modded) is a polish mk3 gt tdi. Had the same paint job and wheels.

There is no such model as "Paddock". It is a standard GTI 16v with some modification to look like a 20 Jahre. Everyone can put a sticker in the rear saying whatever.
