how many people assume that sleeper means shabby?!

as per original post sleeper would be mint condition or as close as I can get it.

Yeah i know i read that! Was just givin you my opinion in some types of sleeper. And how a tidy well spec'd style sleeper is FTW

IMO sleeper is standard looking with something special under the bonnet capable of smashing
Much more expensive assumingly quicker cars I.e a standard looking corsa running a c20let and smashing a porsche etc ??


RE: sleepy or no sleepy - Piggy - 04-01-2013

exactly?! skirts and gti bumpers and spoiler dont say sleeper to me?!


sleepy or no sleepy - Jukie88 - 04-01-2013

Don't get me wrong any cad can potentially be a sleeper or e.g a standard looking gti6 but turbo charged or supercharged ?? For e.g my mate has a mk2 golf looks completely standard but has a near 400bhp 20v turbo it's a monster button the everyday person standard 8v :-)

cool...apart from being a VW....too easy


RE: sleepy or no sleepy - cwspellowe - 04-01-2013

Skirts and phase 3 front end purely say phase 3, there's no such thing as GTi specific trim.

Sleeper to me would be like Dum's sedan. Whatever bumpers you want, with steel wheels/hubcaps. Get some steelies that are 7J wide and stick some hubcaps on.


RE: sleepy or no sleepy - Piggy - 04-01-2013

going with basic 15" steels...as got near brand new set of good 195/50/15 tyres.

like the ph1 look so not going for ph3 front end.

not slamming either...want it to be a usable handler...too low sucks for handling

Technicaly there is in ph2 as a ph2 gti spec differs from the ph3 (externaly) Tongue

And in ph1 even more so. Dosnt piggy have a ph1?


RE: sleepy or no sleepy - Piggy - 05-01-2013

I do and you are right in a way...the ph1 had different trim buts as a gti to the other less sporty models

those are the best, add thats more spice to the unspecting!
OP you cannot beat a car thats been down graded in looks but has twice or even more the power it should have.
my spec is practically 1.1c, just the basic fan heater setup, with a rev counter and fag lighter, no radio, no electric toys or pas,
so theres practically f*ck all to go wrong with the car electric wise. kept it nice and simple.


RE: sleepy or no sleepy - Piggy - 05-01-2013

nah I love my front and rear electric windows, that surprises people too!!!

as will my hidden new stereo system with 900watt sub!


RE: sleepy or no sleepy - Piggy - 13-02-2013

nail in coffin to the gti look...

alloyies from a C5...

so be sleeper...will.tidy up the bumpers and bodywork as best I can and keep it looking standard...

but do I leave the wheels looking like bare steels or add wheel trims?!?!
