But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.

I looked at one same colour years ago when i dreamed of being able to afford insurance on a gti and that was £2.5k then.
Looks very tidy that,i d feel guilty doing anything to it.

Thanks for the comments all.

Yes have decided all I'm planning for now is some RA's and I might get some 16v suspension put on.

It is indeed a lovely example - enjoy!

Just out of interest, where are you getting your 16v springs from, and roughly how much are they?

Thanks,
Robert

I haven't sourced any yet, but I think a full set of OEM 16v springs will be getting on for £250....not the cheapest option  :sad:
