Plate is too big. You can legally go a bit smaller on an import! On the front

Looks awesome though. Love the foggies

@InvaderGIR is your golf as clean as it looks to be? It looks superb.

I just know how to use my camera well.

It's ok I guess but it's by no means a pristine or a show car especially as it's on 223k miles (original 8v engine as far as I'm aware) and has some issues but it's pretty solid and drives well.

Apparently what I said only applies to import cars without type approval. Never mind!

Traded the FN2 in this weekend. over the moon with it. more pictures once properly clean

Good swap. Any plans or are you happy with the way it is?

Akagi · 16 Jul 2018 at 12:52

Would like one of those. Shame prices are going in the wrong direction

Dis86 · 16 Jul 2018 at 12:57

Really like it minus that crap on the filler cap.

Its customary for any sporty Japanese car to have a slightly cringeworthy JDM-esque sticker, dontcha know. Especially if its not actually an import. Mostly applies to UKDM MX5's.

Yesss I know.

I know but go big or go home. I wanted to go balls to the wall when I did it.

Yeah I test drove a Mazda 3 MPS with a BBR 320 kit, it was awesome! So I do see your point! But originally I wanted 400HP so I could take it to the drags with a bit of sleeper status, but drive it on low boost at 300~ most of the time.

Bbr? May aswell have been stock

250HP to 320HP is quite a bit bump still... lol

My answer to everything, just put a V8 in it, What's that, you want to tune your Ford KA? put a V8 in it.

Didn't "someone" do something similar with a Toyota IQ?

Akagi · 16 Jul 2018 at 14:18

Aston Martin put a V8 in the Cygnet?

Uncle_Gravy · 16 Jul 2018 at 14:19

See I knew my logic wasn't flawed, V8 everything I say.

Fairly happy with how it is, needs a good detail. The exhaust is loud and also has a bit to make it ridiculously loud don't know if that might get a bit annoying so far it just makes me laugh.
I will no doubt get some aftermarket wheels, and planning on modding the intake in the next few weeks.

but it drives superb and is great fun think I will just get her looking nice and shiny and enjoy driving, the swirl marks are horrendous.

that's why I took the plunge, didn't want them to become to far from my grasp.

to be removed when it gets a good clean there's also one on the rear
