It's a 1.6 driver automatic conversion  :wink: Just added other pics of my past VW's....Monza Blue had to be my fav with a 185bhp TSR  :smiley:

aw the monza blue is so nice, how come you got rid of that? You got any big plans for your latest mk2?

Everything was uprated and I didn't have a job at the time to maintain it  :cry: My mates persuaded me to get rid of it  :angry: I regret it a lot and had to have another Mk2 after thinking I was sensible buying a 206 gti!!! lol hated every minute of it and brought this on a whim. Not sure what to do with it yet....any suggestions? might even sell it on and get a real one  :undecided:

Well I don't really consider myself much of an expert really so wouldn't really be able to say what would be a good idea to do to your golf just now. I have only had my mk2 since April. From what I know so far I think you can upgrade your carbs? Looks like yours is already lowered which is good. How about porsche 924/944 seats? I have seen them in my friends type 19 and looks really smart.

I't not on carbs, and the interior has just been done out in leather...Hmmm the only thing I would do at the mo is probably change the wheels until I decide if I'm keeping it or not.....What have you got?...Any mods?

Whats going on with the breather/catch can setup on the monza blue - looks pretty funky!

The whole car was pretty funky....biggest regret selling it  :cry: possibly wasted on a girl lol but more wasted on the bloke that brought it then broke it for parts  :angry:

cool, mine is tornado red 5dr gti 8v. So far just wheels and lowering springs. its in the garage now getting polished and ported head. got a k & n panel air filter coming in the post and will soon be ordering a stainless manifold and jetex exhaust. probably wont do much else to it for a while after that as thats going to cost a fair bit. plans for the future will be cams eventually. i posted my pic on the photo thread.  :smiley:

I'd like to know what car the intake hose on the grey one is off. I like the way the isv is plumbed into that but mines different

Hi, I'm not sure exactly it's just a K&N induction kit? but the Engine is a MK3 ABF....it needs sorting out because the two breather hoses that come off it don't actually connect to anything  :shocked: very strange!

It was my favourite by far...but circumstances make you do stupid things  :cry: I'm happy that I have another but will always miss my Monza Blue for sure
