No specific reason...

I was in my local JCT600 today getting parts for her Seat P.O.S., had a sit in a brand new sport black. They really are rather nice arent they!

I went hunting for nice Mk3's... Theres lots in the states! This time next year they will be hitting £5k for the early ones maybe.

The MK3 really does benefit from even light modifications doesn't it. Just dropping a bit really changes it stance/look. These two that Hornetrider posted a few weeks back are the best I've seen...

Red ones with black wheels look best.

Thinking of treating her to some lowness, wheels, exhaust, filter and map later this year. Possibly facelift rear lights, a euro trip and a few track days also biggrin

Oh dear!

I have been lusting after MK3s all day particularly the one below and this thread has done nothing but convince me that I NEED a MK3 in my life!

Thanks

That does look good but I'm not into the matt look. I think it'll go the way bronze did a few years ago i.e. a passing fad.
