Ever since I put the 19s on the Toledo I got pissed off with it, had to buy spacers 3 times, wheel fell off, were always rubbing even on a normal drive so got rid of it.
Got this Golf the other night, GT TDi 130 PD, comes with a bit of spec already so a decent base for me to make better, came with coilovers, polybushed lower arms, straight through exhaust, egr bypassed, fmic and a custom remap with 4.5k rev limiter lol, supposedly running around 180bhp.
Short term plans are to lower it more, tint the windows and fit an anniversary splitter, and whatever else comes along.
Needs a good polish and wax but weather has been shit.

Cars are gradually getting better. Wind deflectors look shit though and those wheels need some spacers, immediately

I wouldn't think it needs lowering more, or tints.
Looks smart. Nice car.

Only person who must spend more on insurance admin fees that he does for a year's cover
I would say this is an improvement

Can't put my cb aerial on this as the normal aerial is at the rear of the roof lol.
Front end is getting a anniversary splitter, have an R32 bumper that I got with it but its fibreglass which I hate so won't be going on.
Should be nice when I put a few felt spec touches too it lol

Do people (and by people I don't mean paedophiles from the 70's) actually communicate via CB radios?

A load of folk in rwd cars use them over here when there out diffing at night, they usually go out in groups so can let each other know if theres police etc about, and theres the likes of me who just put the aerial on for show lol, I see quite a few sitting down by the sea with CBs as well, must be communicating with the boats for whatever reason

lol Won't be going as low or it also won't have 19 inch wheels, every time I went over a bump there was a loud screeching noise which was scary lol, its nice to have something I can drive properly again.
Think the front is ok but want the back down more to match
