Kind of got some more wheels!








18X8J Front and 18X9J Rear. 20mm spacers all round. Need to adjust the front slightly it's not sitting perfect yet.

well, quick update, kind of bought a massive front mount and an interior. its only the black / grey "sports" set of seats that you get in a GT TDI, but its better than the peasant spec 1.6 interior.

Will update very soon!  :smiley:

Quick update!

Had brand new wishbones put on, new dimpled and grooved disk on front with Mintex pads.
Changed the drive shaft on near side as the cv joint was dead.
Also need to change the drive shaft on the offside as there is a grim knocking sound.
Low life problems!!  :laugh:

New disks and pads just need to get slight surface rust off, all good now!



Old near side CV!



Destroyed with grit and dirt!

Also put the GT TDI spec interior in.
Needs cleaning tbh but it's really good condition, nothing I can't clean up!

Before:




After:



Old interior back in my car to go to new home!




Sneak peak of my massive front mount! Ignore the stain on the boot liner, it is my mates old one on top of mine I used to transport wheels  :laugh:
