Martz Super Blue 8v

[Martz]

How about one of those V6's like your family wagon's 24v 2.8, that would be f@@king sweet mate

Yep, exactly what I am thinking. 204hp standard ticks the boxes on a MK2. My bus is pretty quick given its weight etc and I can't help think what it would be like in a MK2. I assume its a case of drop in and use VAG loom and ecu? Anyway, worry about that later on. Idea is to find one with a fecked engine with all the work done to convert it............

sh!t! Are you trying to give guy a heart attack

I love the colour of this mk3 

Could'nt resist it!

Martz I thought you had broken this up already 
Hey if its ticking the boxes for now then doss about in it!
Jay

Exactly Jay, was going for Polo GTi (2001 or so), but not knowing much about them, until now.  I saw Guy's one and knew it has been well looked after and as it's a daily ride it has eveything my wife needs to get to work in. Just need to sort a few little bits out and it's spot on. Cheap motoring for now, I can use that fuel saving in my V6 Galaxy and listen to the nice noise it makes whilst heating up the planet!

Yup the V6 in the Galaxy is a VW engine, ECU etc that Ford decided to use as all mechanical parts (they wouldn't let VW use their 2.3 4 pot engine ) forgot to ask, is yours a 4Mo or whatever Ford called the 4wd Galaxy? 204 HP would be sweet in a Golf, I know the engine would be heavy, but lets be honest, that sound and power would be awesome !

No, mine is front wheel drive. It's all about the noise Jay!

Let's just all be glad that Ford didn't let VW use the 2.3.

Looking mint, as it would coming from Guy and nice to see it's staying that way with the next owner.

So, a little update. Nothing done to her at all. I am going to buy 2 rear window motors to fix that little issue, exhaust heatshield still needs sorting (may do that at the weekend) and got a set of rims going on her thursday, which is nice.
