Well after owning a mk2 about ten years ago which had a 2l 16v ABF fitted, then a 2.9VR6 conversion - which never actually got driven - i always had a soft spot for them so following a drunken chat with a mate decided that i needed another one in my life.. So the next week i jumped on a train and travelled a couple of hundred miles and picked this one up... It stayed in the garage for the winter but now the summer is here - kind of - i thought i would take it out and use it daily... It's just had coilovers, new brakes eibach ARB's and a fairly major service so it's running sweet as a nut now.. I am a bugger for selling cars all the time but this one is a keeper!!







The others have been removed as there were too many of them!!!!

Thought i would fire up a couple of pics whilst the car is looking clean..

New engine is purchased and will be getting installed in May, interior is getting trimmed in the next couple of weeks then hopefully it will be ready for some summer fun..

cheers

cheers, the wheels will be getting changed when the new engine goes in, as much as i like BBS style wheels i wont be going for them, looking at getting something simple such as speedline corse 6 spokes or compomotive TH2's, car will be built to be driven, not cleaned - too much!!
