so this is my second mk4 1 8t, started with a 5 door jazz blue

decided this was costing to much to fuel

so got rid for fiesta zetec s big mistake. this was way to slow and engine blow up on me after a month so i ended up getting a cupra.



kept this for a year then decided to try the low and slow route, brought a bora kept that for 3 months then decided low and slow was not for me.


 so here is what ive got now ml4 anniversary 1.8t 134,000 on clock



first thing i did was had the alloys refurbed £150 and a black grill £12

Then i fitted catch can and some silicone hoses ready for remap as they are prone to splitting.



then i got some pressed plates ordered only £24 and polo ariel £12 and debadged the boot
