Josh’s Pirelli edition
Bodyboarder81:
Not really done anything to the golf .... was originally looking for a apr/Loba fuel pump and go stage 2+ but decided not to , as I feel the car produces the power level for the chassis to cope with . Even with the wavetrack it’s very traction limited in this poor weather . Also was going to go for a set of ohlins ( same as my S2k runs ) but for the intended use of the golf just feel it would be over kill . It already has the Bilstein b12 kit along with eibach anti roll bars , ttrs wishbones , so is a great road going setup . If I were to track the car then I feel this set up is way to soft but I don’t intend to do so .
My tax bill came in at around 10k lower than expected :pomppomp: so looking into getting a nice mk1 golf to garage and run along side my s2000 .
Where is the best place to start looking for one ? If anyone knows someone who’s thinking of selling , then please get in touch :happy2:
Ideally looking at one that’s been restored and is more of a show car :drool: ( think low and bbs Wheels style )
Cheers :drinking:

The problem isn't on the chassis, it's on the wet weather. :wink:
You'd need AWD to keep using the engine's power with wet roads.

Yes completely agree .... it as soon as the better weather comes I’ll be out and about in the S2k .... so seems silly to chase more power / better chassis in the golf ..... plus I want a mk1 :grin:

The S2000 should be more handful and fun to drive than your Ed. 30. :driver:
