Everyone seems to like the color.

Would love to do it as I think there is only 1 or 2 in this color in the UK.

Mate rang me today about someone asking after a 1.8T conversion into their golf.  He said he may know of a engine around as a conversion.

Figures flew around of 2k with all the parts needed for a conversion, and all the mods off mine, ECU, clocks etc.

Thats a damn hard choice to make.  Do I sell for 2k, get another car and start out again with a 20v lump  Or save up now enough to buy a full car and transfer anything over.

Its certainly got me thinking!
