Proper car, built for enjoyment - not polishing!!

Giz a go on track, mister  :happy2:

Your more than welcome to take her for a spin, would appreciate your thoughts on how she's setup  :happy2:

Cool. I can't imagine I'd have anything useful to input baring in mind where it's come from!.. but it'd be nice to have a lap in the MKV mine would have been if I'd carried on  :happy2:
Sideways yo!

Wow Steve. Excellent.

Looks fantastic with the new front end. Was never a fan of the bumper VWR had fitted.

Cant wait to see what other plans you have for her.

Does it have full interior still or is it partially stripped (not to Neil's extent)

You planning a cage and 2 buckets for it?  :wink:

It's gotta be done I think!
