i agree about 2 much lol but i do have suspension n brakes on the way im not looking at doing this over night by the way its called a project for a reason

Fair enough. Not saying don't do it, not by a long stretch.
I guess I am just saying that, from experience, it adds up! It is easier doing it over months/years but as the cars get older more things start to go wrong, bumping the cost up.
Its silly things on mine that have cost money - seals, locks, mats, power steering pipes etc. Nothing major but things that end up costing £'s and getting in the way of the enjoyable bits!
If you can do bits yourself, obviously the cost can be quite a bit less.

If I do sell mine, my next endevour will be a Mk1 with either a 2.0TFSI or 2.0TDI. So in no way am I saying don't do it, just saying old can increase the cost and when you calculate to spend several grand, even a few hundred extra to spend can by unwelcome/make you absolutely skint!

i did think about copying that guy from one of the latest vw performace mags with dropping a 2.0 tfsi in the mk4 lmao but again it cames down to money lol
