Nice one Mew....
turns out "mr X" is running a VR6 conversion! :smiley:

Make     VOLKSWAGEN
Model    GOLF VR6 HIGHLINE
Engine Size    2792
Colour    BLACK
Fuel    PETROL
BodyStyle    5 DOOR HATCHBACK
Transmission    MANUAL
Gears    5 SPEED

Car has only had 2 owners so must be a labour of love.

I have to say the lane traffic did not allow me pull next to him to compare the performance but the valver was comfortably holding nicely behind him! I thought it might have been a poorly mapped turbo or something as he did chuck out some smoke when trying to pull away! :grin:

His engine did sound nice tho!

I would say that is a mk3 matey if it comes up as a VR6 Highline as Highline is a trim level if I remember correctly. Never seen a mk2 past an K plate :)

Could have sworn it was a black MK2 dude!
Though, it was quite dark and his friggin bright lights blinded me when he went past!
Was curious as to what he was running sounded diff  :smiley:

Maybe I should post this on the mk3 section?  :tongue:
Unchartered territory!

I know of one Mk2 on an L plate, came up for sale last year (Oak Green). Doubt there are too many others and definately not on a N plate. Must have been a canal barge  :wink:
