mk3 gti 16v anniversary
« on: 05 January 2011, 22:23 »
hiya heres a few pics of my new mk3. Its standard except for the lenso eagle 17in alloys and the exhaust which is a powerflow full stainless. The back box will be changed sometime this year to a twin exit similar to the standard also its been lowered but just on springs and struts again this will be changed for a set of coilovers. It came with loads of reciepts and also the original alloys aswell which werent in the best of condition so i quickly refurb them with some matt black just to use during this sh!tty weather to keep the salt off the lensos.

Pretty sure theres no real way of telling tbh as there not individually numbered like the 25th anni.I wouldnt think theres all that many annis left full stop in 8v,16v and tdi I do know that yours in metalic black was a optional extra.

Like the motor Mate, really clean example. I never saw this nocking about and I live by Dudley. I am going the other way and think the wheels need changing back to the original. I beliee Anni's need the original gear to keep the appearence but then it's your motor and if you like it then that's all that matters. And welcome to the site  :cool:

Agree with Deano, needs to keep it's original features to holds it own. Obvs you don't want it to be like every one elses!  :grin:
