golf gti > skoda pick up

[john]

t'was cheap and there's a bit of a niche market for commercials with lowered suspension and alloys (i intend do do both) so i'm confident i'll see my money back when i get sensible again. the wife has a propper car so this is a bit of a toy i guess

Why not. What you're doing is 'ute-ifying' it I suppose.

Get some big rims and that corrado engine Pickle has in and you'll be away!

ah i see a green one of those around plymouth, havent seen it for a while now though :? also, on the subject of VW i know of a corrado which is loverly, all purple, no door handles, single centre pipe i think, borbet rims

Love it!

Apparently 1 in 3 cars have been clocked at some point, so it probably wasn't genuine mileage anyway.

Were you really going to buy a 5 door MK III Golf in wee wee colour!!

Looks like a lucky escape to me,well unless you are a 20 something hairdresser from Essiiix,oh! and a girl!

On the other hand the skoda looks like a nice little motor.

Will look better when you've sorted the stance!! :shock: I've got a set of 4 Audi 14 inch 5 spoke wheels that would look good on there if you aren't going to run the steels.

al.

It has potential........

 

[Easy_Rider]

It's crying out for euro look, tiny mega wide alloys and decked

at the minute i ahve 2 sets of bbs rx2's in the shed and a set of g60 golf steels so it'll have those for a start. if i keep it long term then it'll either be porsche wheels of some description or bbr rs splits.

can't wait to see what it looks like lowered. only problem is the lowest drop i can buy off the shelf is only 40mm so i may have to get creative somehow...

@ pickle. where did you find that picture? that is truly shocking!

Just take a blow torch to the existing springs...

tempting but risky

I dunno - T kinda like the little red pickup as it is in a Richard Hammond/Yellow Opel sorta way. Alloys maybe, but no more.

All it it needs is a couple of custom made bike racks in de back
