Post by: Stanipkiss on November 20, 2015, 10:31:45 pm

A few weeks ago i found this bog standard MK2 Jetta GTi

After a few weeks of ownership and great fun driving it on dry weekends, I needed to know what was left in the old boy. So we took a ride to Jeffries in Plymouth to have a go on the rolling road.

The result was surprising, bear in mind this car is 25 years old and has 194k on the clock.

Its now tucked away in the garage for winter till i decide what to start on. Cant decide on weather to keep standard or go down the modding route.
Has anyone else got a winter project?
