Mk2 Golf GTi 8v

[KevM]

This one has been on the 'to do' list for 20 years now!!

 

[Phil_D]

Love that... health to drive

 

[cormac81]

Very nice. Quite like red big bumpers.

 

[micko]

Very nice, red when shiney, looks great.
Something about number plate looks odd/fussy. Nice period NI plate would help it.

 

[KevM]

I'd like a period 3-digit maybe through time, but the glass is etched, & I'm really dying to stick as close to original as I can. To the extent that, I'm going to lift the suspension & even remove the 6x9's

 

[NickR]

Very nice mate, I have a real soft spot for these.

 

[AMG]

Lovely looking car, nice to keep it fairly standard/original.

 

[Woodcutter]

Beaut!

 

[WSM]

Lovely mate. I like it!

 

[jimc]

I would lift it a tad and leave as is "perfect" allow Ra's are pain to clean as you get older

 

[Jamie-g]

Nice car. Htd!!

 

[BIGDAVE]

[G N K]

Love that, very nice.

Hard to beat a mk2 golf, looks great! They g60 arches on it?

 

[KevM]

Yes @cauld1 , I might even put the standard ones back on too

 

[Tufty]

Lovely Car and health to drive.

 

[Ian A]

Lovely.

Red really is the best factory colour big a big bumper 3dr GTI in my opinion.

 

[collyirwin11]

Great looking motor.

Seeing this, and @Neil@rockvale @johna3 make me want to get my butt in gear and get our 8v road worthy.

Funny you should say that, this one came from Neil!

 

[jimc]

Just looking again I would say put the standard arches back on before you think about raising it up

 

[Tufty]

I was ment to take a run up the same evening you did but you got there before me. :-( lol

 

[johna3]

Looks like a great example, health to drive!

Get yours dusted off and roadworthy @collyirwin11...

 

[KevM]

We're well on the way to being able to get gears now! lol

The linkages were shot, so they are all getting cleaned & re-bushed.

Time for a Chinese....

 

[jimc]

i have a brand new genuine sunroof seal if you need one

 

[johna3]

Interested to hear if the linkage bushes make much of an improvement. I need to get round to doing mine

Would recommend a mk3 weighted shift rod too!
