Well after a eventful trip and being rescued by zakk I picked this up Sunday
Needing something with 5 doors this will do the job
Gti interior
Gti rear axle
40mm koni front springs and dampers
Cyclones and a set of pepper pots
Set about sorting a few little jobs
Fixed the leaking sunroof and removed duck tape
Changed front speakers
Got cutting compound on the rear quarter
Before
Before I picked the car up I went to Chris's on the way down and picked these up
Arp studs and 11mm pump ready for the big plans I have for this
Comments welcome

It's really tidy for year but I'm not happy with it ATM in some lights you can see wing has faded going to get buffer on it see what that does if not compressors getting fired up and a fresh coat of paint want it mint bit OCD when it comes to cars

So after that I set about looking why the exhaust was blowing its balls off and the car filling with coal
Would explain it tbh
Que grinder!
Got to get that bolted back on tomorrow and get some tires swapped off the huge stock of wheels I have onto my alloys and she's all good to go on the road

Don't know how sleeper spec it will be but I'm not one for big coolers hanging out the bumper
Will have tints all round but rest will be pretty original I think
