My Newbee

For all you haters out there this is my latest Dub, needed to replace the passat and this was the nearest to where i live and i only had a day to get a car. It's actually growing on me and the 2.0L engine aint to bad.

how i got it



relocated front plate ready to have the bumper smoothed, going to smooth the bonnet too




Coilovers and drop links are ordered and i have a set of 17inch BBS RC's in the garage that have been painted black, just need to paint the centres and get new BBS centre caps.

comments ???

get an rsi kit for it

been overdone......lol

Nice mate, what's the 2.0 like? Chaz is thinking about getting 1.

the 2.0 is a bullet proof engine, can be a little juicy but you'll be used to that with the TT.....

What sort of mpg mate, i did read they was abit thirsty. just just 1.8T are out of her price range really.

they have the two part sumps on them too iirc so you can take it quite low

not sure on mpg as i never really worry about it, gotta be better than a 1.8T though.

As for the 2 piece sump, you'll find out when you fit my coilovers.........lol

few more mods

Plates are on




BBS RC's on




Coilovers fitted





centre caps ready for paint



ditched the orange flower

Much improved with wheels and low.
You seem to have a fascinater on the dash

just incase i get stuck in traffic, ease the boredom

fitted roof rack as the boot is proper tiny !

Painted centre nuts too, just waiting on centre badges from germany

Kinda like the new beetles even if they are essentially just a golf underneath iirc. Like the direction you're going in with it, what's next?

looks good m8 i like it

having the front smoothed, shave the front indicators, paint the lower valance black and maybe the running board/side sills

Looks really sweet man ;-)

i had one as a company car for a week or so, really smooth

how hard were the coilovers to fit on this dude? my girlfriend has one in the same colour but her's is only a 1.6

if i can convince her to buy some coilovers i will be putting them on myself






^^^^^ can't have her riding around with that arch gap for much longer! especially for when i drive it. nearly get a nose bleed being so high

yours looks pretty sweet btw

we fitted FK Street coilovers and they're pretty good for cheapies, we fitted new drop links too just incase the ARB rubbed. The biggest pain in the ass was removing the wind screen wipers as they were rusted on. if you get stuck give us a shout and i'll call Lupton as he fitted mine

Sent you a pm Jaques.

Not updated for a while.

Retro roofrack fitted, BBS centre caps fitted



Had the front smoothed, just need wings blending in as the paint has faded badly



playing around with interior ideas, covered the centre dash section with $100 bills.

this is look really good mate

never see it coming past the house though

Like the money idea, goes well with the green.

Not so sure on the smooth front. Plates off centre too

exactly what i thought,the plate is further over towards the nearside .

i've got to move the plate to one side as the fan keeps cutting in so its only temporary
