hi, i do have a project log already on here but to be honest its full of me changing my mind, starting from chavvy body kit (when i was younger) to a 5 door gsi rep (not 100%)

hopefully i shuld not change my mind every 10 mins, like i used to :meh:

heres some pics as i know u guys love em :D

when i first bought her £250
problems: suspected head gasket
suspected alternator, he said it wouldn't stay charged turned out the batt wasn't connected properly

good points
she's was rust free and still is
sun roof
new batt

and now pics

new sidelights and engine bay neons (thinking of removing them, the more i see em the more cheesy it looks)
