Lol very funny.
Rite some pics of the mk2
This is how it was when I got it about 10 months ago.

 

It was ssooo high so it had to come down to earth a bit.

 

then the carb flange broke so I changed it, but the car wudent start. Turned out the dizzy was also nakered. So got one off a polo but they were a little different. The holes were it mounts were in the wrong place and had no vacume advance. So I elongated the holes and ran it a bit advanced so it work ok. This was a mistake. The headgasket then blew a week later lol. Oh how i laffed, not!. So changed the head gasket and brought a new dizzy. Problem solved! Had a small issue with the pissburg but was just a dodgy wire to the solinoid. It's been great since, but now its time for some speed.
Hears a few more pics of my car with screeth16v and ma step dads mk 1.

 

 

 

 

 

Cheers for lookin peeps
