Nice! looks good..

I dont know why people think its chavy. Ive never seen this car badly modded and chavs can barely afford booze and cigarettes let alone insurance for a starlet.  :grin:

Not sure why people need to own lots of different cars. Just by one that does it all  :undecided:

When insurance goes down I'm going to buy something diesel for a daily car and something a bit stupid.

If I had it my way I'd have a van, a comfortable powerful derv and something a bit silly.

Cheers guys.. everyone seems a bit 50/50..

The car is great.. but.. its not german by any stretch of the imagination.. people moan about parts failing on golfs and such i know ive been there.. but these cars are something else everything is built bad from day one.. the dash and whole interior is plastic and not great.. the engines are bulletproof like german but again once modded they are temperamental like the starlet for instance to mod you need to fit a 'fuel cut defender' to fool the standard ecu so you can run higher boost without it cutting in like limp mode, these in different weather conditions play up and in turn cause fuel cut its a catch22 situation..

Im finding it a fun little car thats nippy it just needs some tlc and personal touches to make it more german homely..
