what's the point in buying another golf? I wouldn't love it. It wouldn't be the car that I made like this. This is the car I want to drive. :)

sure I could of bought a new one, but there aren't many new cars out there that weigh less than a ton and there defiently aren't any that look as good as a mk2 golf (my opinion)  ;D

marcus -- in my opinion dizzies is the best mark 2 ive ever seen.  i dont think u can really appreciate it til u see it in real life but it really doesnt look like 'just' a mark2.

ive put pics of my car on the web with dizzies car behind and people always ask without fail about the car in the background it is an absolute head turner.

the interior doesnt let down the exterior either. dizzie really has paid attention to detail and done most of the work himself.  i think u would be hard pushed to find a g60 as nice as this.

realistically, i dont think we will ever see dizzie sell this car and thats why the engine upgrade was obviously a good move for him.  The car was never slow in the first place, but obviously having put so much work into it, selling it would imo been a silly move but i guess we ar all power hungry at the end of the day.

im not trying to big up dizzie at all, but ive seen a few cars over the last few months at meets and this is the only one thats really made my jaw drop.
 
it has definate show potential and i think dizzie knows this, if ur thinking of doing the same marcus make sure u have the right car in the first place. thers not many like this one  ;)

cheers vix, ;)

my car golf is a real minter, so definatley the right platform for a conversion.

my only concern is selling it on,
but then i guess if you have invested as much time as dizzie has on his, you would never want to let it go. ;)

nowadays there is no way i would convert my rhd golf to a g60 engine cos it would no way keep its value,

but a 1.8t conversion is a diffrent story.

anyways,
im gonna save up some cash and c what i can do with it

can twait to see the car dizzie,
like ive sed to you before dude, on the pics it looks mint
are you goin to the santa pod meet?
ill have a good butchers then if you are ;) :D
