Title: New from Bolton with VR6 x2 (sort of)
Post by: andyrs on 16 January 2008, 21:01

 How do, Thought it was about time i joined, I have owned my mk3 for about 1 year now, its off the road at the mo so i'm having to drive my corsa 2.0 that has become my daily runner,
 I have a set of 8x17 BBS LM reps on order for the car so it should be looking good for the shows later on this year,

 Spec,

 Koni coilovers,
 Crappy 17's for now,
 Full stainless,
 Recaro leather,
 Momo team 300mm wheel,
 FK headlights, fogs, rears, grill & single wiper,
 Toad full closure,
 Induction kit,
 Strut brace & bonnet lifters,
 German plates,
 
 The cage has been sold, but i regret that v-much so another will be on order soon.

 Pics,

 I also have a unfinished mk2 vr6 sat outside my house, The plan was to complete it but i really dont have the time, I have sold it 8 times now but every single person let me down, The engine is from a R-reg bog standard 5 door, Its done 48k, The car is a G-reg 16v in red + G60 arches, spax coilovers, 5-stud with the late VR bigger brakes, polybushed, stainless etc, It also came with a full climatronic setup for a mk3,

 I bought it as it is as my mate was skint, I really wouldnt mind seing it finnished, Maybe 1 day,

 Cheers

 Cheers for the welcome people, Yea cant wait to get the wheels on, Just not sure about the rest of the car, may change a few things like vento front with smoked angel eyes, but i really dont know yet,

 As for the mk2, its a non runner and does need a fair bit of work, The car does not run but the engine has been running while in the doner mk3, it would be a shame for the car to be scrapped, the car owes me £1000 and i would be daft to sell it cheap as its a good engine to put in mine, but if any1 is serious then get in touch,
