I know mate, I was just a bit disappointed that LL wasn't doing it to another of his own mk3s  :grin:

:D I know, this can be my practice part 2, but I won't tell him that :D :D :D :D :D

I want to build a proper "built for speed" mk3 1.8t, but that won't happen for years. Thats my project for when I have a decent job and a house with a garage lol.

Uploading pics now :)

Wow! There must be a lot of pics  :laugh: :lipsrsealed:
