just realised i never started a thread for the Bora, not that much has been done since i got it
(not quite as enthusiastic with it as i was on the Rado!)
I got the Bora off jimmymidnight on here late last year in a deal for my greatly missed ABF Corrado as a needed something a bit more suitable for carting the kids round in. :(
This is how it looked when i got it:
first thing to go was the debadged grille as i just preffered the look of the standard one as well as changing back to its original X plate as Jimmy wanted to keep his private plate which was fine by me:
had a few running problems since i have had it leading to me replacing the MAF sensor, Coil pack and plugs and leads.
I also noticed recently that the front tyres were getting VERY low but with my holiday in a couple of weeks did not want to spend too much on new tyres, after considering buying some part worns (causing a bit of a depate on here) i found some standard mk4 gti 16" alloys with virtually new tyres for about the same price as one 18" tyre so thought i would buy these and run them temporarily:
I actually quite like them and i have never been that fond of the A8's so may end up leaving them on there or just flogging both sets and getting something different but not sure yet........
