Like we discussed before it's not just the front that needs doing to pull off the ph 1 shape. If you go for a 1 off car then [HEAVY BLACK HEART]️

For the phase 1 estate you'd definitely need to fully commit to the phase 1 theme, so rub strips, side repeaters etc.

Probably do something with the rear lights too to make them look less modern

Stick some black rubber strip round the edge of them to make them look like the ph1 items

Ah good idea. Paint the top red bit black helps too. I know pretty much everyone with an estate does but it does look way better lol

Think it would look a little retro in a cool colour like the old ph1 spinnaker turquoise with all the bump strips black and that rear lights idea :-)

When I've sold my shit ST I may have a bash at this !!!

Hmm Id probs have the half leather interior tbh if I were to have a bash I like the modernness of the inside but outside would all be old skool ph1

Would be easyer just doing the out side, the inside is a pain as they changed so many little bits here and there. im still trying to get my interior into a ph3 atm

Yeah I don't doubt it, far too much fiddling around for me with interior I'd keep it all cosmetic

These seats are rubbish for support, I have a set...way too much squishy foam Sad.

I'd use a certain 5 door cloth seats (can't remember which model) as they are a poor mans s16 seats

I beg to differ, the ph4 leaf pattern (air bag version) are alot better than any of the other 5 door leathers, not quite s16's but alot better than ph2/3 half leathers

Are they firmer and sculpted? I assumed leathers only got squishier from ph1..I'm sorry Sad

i wouldnt bother changing the interior to phase 1, although xtdt cloth seats are damn comfy, better than my airbag leaf patterns anyway so maybe oneday....

new mot rules would make it a pita changing a 2002 hdi into a phase 1 because of the whole factory fitted airbag thing, as much as I would like to have a top glovebox again

Ah so the s16 5dr equivalents are from an XTDT, I will have to keep an eye out for a set as I want to get rid of the leathers for a more supportive seat
