well i will get it lowered (springs already bought) new front speakers, rear speakers, colour coding plastic bits, cat back exhaust, new door and generally get all the little niggles out the way! an maybe this time next year i may be looking into a G40! we shall see!

work wise, i'll carry on with my engineering apprenticeship, ast the mo i am in my first year! but the main thing is to slog it out cause the place where i am training is 50 miles away n i go there every weekday until july time! then i will work couple of miles from my house! so my main thing is to keep my chin up, and put up with the next 6 months! it'll be worth it!

Unfortunatly, I cant afford to do much this year on the car. Due to arranging my wedding for Next year.
I have just fitted a PS2 in the car with a 5.6" monitor In the headrest.

The one thing i will be doing though is finishing off my boot build but thats only because im spending my birthday money on it, lol So apart from that is only small mods for me.

he vr6 will be going in this year... whether me and my mate do it, or I have to pay someone...

big brakes, new exhaust.

colour coded bumpers will hopefully be on by the end of Jan.
New interior in Leather.
New install... Audioscape door builds, 2 twelves in the boot..
Tinted windows, coilovers, and a lil bit of smoothing.

Oh yeah, and a roof box!!

The Golf is gonna get a mk3 dash (its in the loft) new wing, new rear lamps, and i have to re-polish someof the engine... then i will get it running, and then it will get sold.

Work wise. Nothing. Just carry on. Now I have my CORGI I will get more money. So I will bekitting my van out with lots more DeWalt goodies!!

This year I will be saving a s**t load of money, because hopefully by the end o this year or early into next year I will be moving stateside to Seattle with my little Polo!!
