induction kit = 0 extra bhp tbh, and some noise.

first car aye?

I bet you haven't/won't be telling the insurance company about any of these "mods"?

[eightyeightmph]

Noobs eh?



You could save up all those 50p spends & put them in your little piggy bank at home, then in a years time fork out for a GTi, or at least a car worth 'improving'?

Saying that, go have a look at LazyLunatic's thread, he's made his 1.4 look just as good as a GTi & despite a pretty chavvy start turned out a nice Golf!

I remember the days of paying stupid insurance!! and being vague in what i told them.... (but i would where possible tell them whats being done as sometimes it has little affect on price you pay, but a big difference if anything happens ....in fact I pay less with all my mods declared than when it was standard!!)
try this link for mk3 pictures (not all gti's etc) and get some inspiration...http://www.golfgtiforum.co.uk/index.php?topic=32871.0 and have a look in the Classified section on here as theres allways someone breaking a gti/vr6 and swapping most trim over is simple!

My first thought would be seats/trim. Well done for buying a Golf and not a Tigra!   

[yerino]

haha! u remembered

i'll get pics up off it soon (maybe tues)

Get a decent VR6 interior or gti. Much better seats
