My Mk4 Golf 1.4 E

[Stu_1.4]

Hello PH's!

Just thought i would share a few pictures of my recently acquired Mk4 Golf 1.4 E. I know it's not very Pistonheads, but i am only 17 so it's the best the funds and insurance company will allow.

I passed my test in April of this year and started driving a salmon pink Seat Arosa 1.0 Mpi, which i soon sold and purschased a Rover 111 whilst i searched for a decent car to spend my hard earned on!

This was it an early Mk4 Golf with an impressive 75bhp! In truth though, it's a great choice for a young driver because insurance is low and you don't have enough power to get yourself in any sort of trouble. However, the car is a great looker and better than the common mainstream of first cars.

Heres a few pictures i took today. The first ones are after a day excursion to the Farnborough air show which ended ina bit of off-roading. Apologises if the pictures are crap my photography skills are basic!









Points to anyone who can identify the burnt out car!















What do you think?

Yeah, the lack of power in his car is just ridiculous!

The bonnet looks like a Scirocco?

Nice first car by the way.

I thought Scirocco too, but then noticed the convertible bit

VW Eos?

Good call. Wheels are definitely off an EOS.

Yep, that's the one! Well done!

i dont think there are any mods on it apart from taking off the golf and 1.4 badges?


oh it has a silver wiper.?

Looks to me like it has alloys (15" Avus Is ), GTI tail lights and GTI side repeaters fitted. The 1.4 E never had a 1.4 badge, so not sure were you got that idea from.

Yep, your spot on. No more plan for it. Other than a black wiper. I'm just saving my money for an upgrade.
