You can buy the Anniversary bodykit (sweet) from VW ... but it'll set you back around ?1000+

No you can get the anniversary kit from Awesome Gti or you can go to Vag parts, you will get change from ?1000,

Wheels look sweet, what are they, and did they make any difference to drivability, eg bumpy, slower pull away etc

Good job fella, those wheels look sweet!

The Mk4 section is producing a good number of modded motors now, well done guys :)

Dave, if you're after suspension options, try and go for coilovers. These will give you immense adjustability, which will allow you to set the car up exactly how you want. They are typically more expensive than a traditional damper and spring package, but the benefits do outway the extra costs involved.

The greatest leveller of them all - the Carousel
