It could be a touch lower in that picture but I had only just installed the shocks/springs. 60mm at the back, 40mm at the front, for the nose down stance..

I liked the BBS RMs, but they would have been too high maintenance in the winter. They are a 2 piece wheel, with 30 bolts on each that attract salt/brake dust. I sold them for £1250.00 with tyres and they cost me £12 hours labour for a website.

Gunna bang a set of Schmidt Modern Lines on nice easy to look after 1piece wheels :)

Pop out windows were sourced from germany for 200 euro, love the Happiches! :)
 
Yeah I posted it in Photography first.

I love mk2's, I've had this one for quite a while now. Love seeing nice ones on the road aswell.

She's got a 16v 2.0L engine, a nice ~170 BHP.

When the new engine went it, had all the bits powerder coated subframe, etc. Please ignore the temp. air box, will get a nice K&N.

You sold the RM's? :O:O:O:O:O
 
Seeing your golf really makes me want to get my Corrados on the road :(

Just costs so damn much :(

Did you know they still make the MK1 golf in Africa? price is around £3.5k if I remember rightly. The 2CV freak from work was telling me :)

EDIT: Looks like they stopped production last year :(

Yeah they've just wound it up, they were strange mk1/mk2 hydrids in 5 door only too. Interesting motor though.
