Title: New guy.
Post by: Jay8v on 28 August 2005, 23:21
Hi.

I own the following:

MK1 Cabriolet which is for sale (Looking for around £2500)

And my MK2 8v GTI

Current mods:

eibach 35mm springs,
eibach anti roll bars,
powerflex bushes/bump stops,
boge gas shocks,
g60 top mounts,
Ronal LS rims (kerbed.. see below),

I managed to lock up and smack into a kerb Friday night. Totally my own fault but I'm still gutted! They were all kerbed already by the previous owner so I was planning on getting them refurbed over the winter and sticking them back on around spring time. 

Anyone got any standard 8v GTi BBS rims or something else that fit a mk2, look half decent and don't cost the earth?

Unfortunatley the cab isn't insured at the moment so it won't be going to E38. I'm only about 20mins from Northampton (Kettering) though...

Insurance was £100 more.
