Drives : mk3 golf if i ever get it goin
|  Subject: my new car  Fri May 16 2008, 19:59 | |
| well after selling my car on wednesday i have been looking for a good base for a project,
looking through ebay i found a half decent mk3 golf vr6,
went and had a look at it last night and it was ok, few bits need to do to it but wanted that anyway.
car has just done 100k, just reached that on the way home, it has got an awful blue interior though
anyway i went and collected it tonight and paid £1050 with some extra bits like a front and rear strut brace and a debadged grill and the standard 15" bbs wheels
anyway here are some pics
dont worry will be gettin rid of them pedals!
hust bought some 16x9 porsche 928 wheels for this but am not sure wether i will keep them yet, bit of a bargain though, only £80
new momo steering wheel on the way aswell and some ap coilovers
whats ya thoughts then?

| Looks ok as a base mate. Sure you'll be seeing brad for some arch work to get rid of the plastic trims 
Blue interior looks gash but replaceable so alls good.
check that the auxillary water pump works properly(back of cyl 6)
Let me know what wheels you'll have spare as i need to either borrow or buy a set so i can refurb the TT comps on my ibiza.
