the 16v polo was nippy but dull.

i only do about 3000 miles a year so thought i may aswell buy a toy!
it's got PAS, full electrics including steel sunroof, aircon and a mint interior.

I plan on going stealth with it, CL style :evil:

no badges, single light grill , -40mm , maybe keep the steelies or get corrado g60 ones. may even de-arch it depending on the paint.

looks good you will never look back, just make sure you sort all the leaks as they are a pain in the arse. Especially with the weather we are having.  :smiley:

Nice plans. If you g60 Steels tho get some spacers as they are a bit lost otherwise.

i'll probably end up with alloys, maybe RA's. G60's are like hens teeth aren't they.

dabill - i've got old mates and family who live round there , marlcliffe road and parkside road. I spent most weekend round hillsborough as a kid.

there are a few old skool VW's round here. a nice turquosie camper up the road and a  mint baby blue type 3 in our flats.
