From looking at the cars that are for sale around the scene etc it seems to me that a nicely modified Golf will command more money than a bog standard original one unless the original has got about 3000 miles on it.  :smiley:

i think the  key is to opt for subtle mods, like lower it a bit just so it sits nicely and a debadged grill with clear lights, thats the beauty of golfs u dnt have to to alot to improve the looks of them
