As she stands at the moment i've stripped 149kg out of the car, and i've still got vertially full interior! My aim is to get to 1000kg with full interior.
 
The only time this thing leaves me will be on the back of a flat bed in pieces lol

Cheers m8, it's not bad, i reckon that 0-60 must be close to sub 7 secs, hard to tell really without being timed properly on a strip.
 
Its a great car, no doubt its fast I been in it. Pulls very well, stiff as fuck too!

Good sleek sleeper look, canny help but think the alloys let it down too many thinn starfish spokes. Needs more manly spokes. GTi Alloys In white perhaps

I like to pretend I'm Scottish.
 
I love the wheels, as said before they suit the non kitted gti very well, i have thought about spraying them simmo, couldn't decide on a colour though lol
 
no mine were cheep Ripspeed alloys i got them to get the car through the MOT as it was cheaper than buying 4 new tyres :)

quite liking the bonnet clips... may have to do it to mine :) unless u wanna trade bonnets :lol:
 
I notice that you have a Jperformance header - did you find this hard to fit, as people have been complaining they couldnt get them on?
 
piece of piss m8, although mine is over 2 years old so they may have changed slightly since i bought it, but yeah i fitted it with no problems at all.
 
looking good! alot of extra bits and pieces you got there for it! not fond of the alloys, but each to their own, fantastic little sleeper look!
