Hi

Picked up this car last night

Totally Standard Edition 30, fully serviced and at 38k with all the receipts to prove it.

Plans are

Cambelt and Water + oil change, just cos next week.
Ipod converter media cable for the short term.
Cruise Control Installed ( To turn the next stage on and off )
APR Remap and APR Cold Air Intake ( If this is a bad idea or you can recommend better please let me know )
Miltek Backbox the louder version, which ever one that is.
Security Tints
Powercoating the Alloys to probably a gunmetal or bright red colour.
Upgrade Stereo to RCD 510 or similar
A few Gauges so I know what the car is doing.
Going to resist as long as I can touching the suspension .. but I am sure I will give in eventually.

I think that will probably do me.

I have come over from the Jap car scene where I had a few different ones, love the build quality and comfort so far on my Dub.. One thing I was looking for was colours alloy bolts that protrude slightly.. can you get these for VW's if so where?

Many thanks

Mat

Hi ,

Looks really mint  well done !,

As for stereo upgrade  just go straight for the RNS-510  nav unit it look correct as well and will make it look proper, there are a couple of good guys who will sort you out with nav   ,  Eddie -nl is the man for the RNS-RCD  cameras etc

look forward to the updates as things are changed
