        Finally! The mk2 passed the pits this morning and is registered now!

        So happy.





        Now hopefully I will have time Saturday morning to swap the coilovers in.

        My next task is to finish refurbing it's new wheels and then drive it daily until I purchase something to replace my mk3!

        I have now named her Jessica

            It does have an after market immobiliser mate, but I have no idea if it's needed. Although I would highly recommend getting one if you don't have one aha

                  Ive decided to put an expression of interest on the old girl. If anyone is interested in her, let me know! She was recently rego'd and has around 5 months left.

                    Scrap the EOI im going to keep Jessica around for a little while longer, watch this space too. Did some work to her today, and shes also now sitting pretty on a set of wheels. I will have some pics up when im happy with her set up and height.

                          MK2's can be made into dailys. I do 900ks every week in mine. They actually get better the more you use them.

                            I second that, my mk2 served as my daily for over 10 years - 200k nearly on the clock and still going strong.
