Anyone fancy buying this as it is?

Might be bringing back an old memory. Watch this space.
Seriously though any interest in buying this pm me.

Okay guys this never went. Been trying to get ready for MOT and everything went balls up two punctures and ruined tyres so I've gone balls deep and got some new wheels.

Can't decide if this is brave or stupid but I've gone for some baby g60's banded to 8.5j rear and 7.5j front.

Hoping I can make it all fit ahaha

Nice look!

I'm thinking of going for a similar look for my Canyon Red 6N2, may I ask - in regards to the black bumper lines, do you purchase these? i dont know what theyre called and where to buy them from!

Thanks,

Karim

Nah this is just poverty spec so the black bum strips are standard. You can take them off and probably spray the ones you have on yours now or if you wanna buy new ones they're known as bump strips/rub strips.

Ah ok thanks - personally I think they look quite nice and make the car stand out a bit more; work well for simple colour way schemes! I'll have a look into it, thanks for letting me know!

Ultimate dubs prep and drive up.

It's made me fall in live with this car again after getting the banded steels!

Keep it, keeep it... then 1.8T yeah baby! Gigiddy.

Or 2.0tsi out of a Leon. 370bhp on stage 2+

Oh yeah! that sounds awesome, i dont know a great deal about the TSI, but that fellas golf on youtube is running nearly a 1000 bhp from a 1.8T.
Ok thats pretty extreme, but the tuning potential...
Having said that, the TSI probably has even more to unlock.

With you man. Hope you had a good day! That is a polo saloon. Retro as hell picked it up for £150 like I said as a run around but he's getting seriously attatched to it haha got his eye on some dishy wheels and he's already bought lowering kit

Update on mine gave her a nice clean yesterday.. Had the coilovers put ok sitting ok on the balloon tyres ATM but scrubbing like hell, that's what its about though unsure what to do got a lot of plans in mind just saving for a bit. But here's the pictures:

Also pressed plates and surrounds

Next on the list gotta get the spoiler sprayed up and fitted an halo rings in lots on at uni so might not get done for a while. Buzzing for summer though to be out and about in this finally looking how I've wanted it since I bought it 3 years ago!!

Where did you get the number plate surround?

Bought em from some guy on Facebook dude. Don't waste your money though they lasted best part of a month so I'm
Running clean now with no
Surrounds
