Added a GTI grill and swapped the interior for a GTI one, just need to change the steering wheel. The GTI seats are a bit more supportive but unfortunately not as mint as my old interior :worried:

Like the no smoking sticker :p

More a fan of single headlight grille but looks well all the same. GTi seat are lovely seats I think, very similar to the Recaros in my E30, nice and supportive.

Looks well, nice one :grinning:

The GTi seats are damn comfy but do prefer the single lamp grill on a small bumper Golf.

Dated?! - Thats the whole apeal of them. Love them to bits-would have another.

Just saw the original grill in your Garage. Definitely prefer it, not a fan of the double lamp at all.

Whens it being lowered?

Driving at night is awesome with the extra two lamps, lights the whole road right up you can see everything.

Even with the extra spotlights they're still rubbish compared to other cars. Uprated wiring loom sorts it out. I'm driving with single headlights at the mo and they're terrible

mk2s will never age, loved them when I was about 12, still love them (maybe more) now. Never really thought much of Saxos.;)

Well that one has 39k on the clocks, probably less miles than most cars on here. Should be safe enough for another few miles I hope.

Cant beat modded 1300's. She looks good man. Mine has 150,300 miles and still going strong so i think youll get another couple of years from her. Dont build them like they used to.

So cars that are over 15 years old should be taking off the road?? Personally i fell safer in my mk2 than in my sisters 206. You might be a fan off little french hatchbacks but others are fans of old Vws, who gives a feck??
