    Great write up ray!
    Sad to see it go.
    Think SEDF10 was the first time I really ever saw your car, those wheels, colour combo, and fitment have always suck in my mind.
    Love the picture of it looking out over the water.

    Cant wait to see what you do next!

              RIP.

              Never seen it in person but always been a fan. Your DIY's have helped me with many a thing on my car, and ive looked through all the photos with the different fitment specs on them, a massive help.

              Going into another mk3 or have something else in mind?

                Hey Ray, RIP to your mk3 man - your car has always been a standout, for whatever reason in particular - but always because you were in there getting your hands dirty.

                I said goodbye to my mk3 last week aswell, so I know how your feeling.

                Anyway, onwards - best of luck with your new car!

                  That's why I love these forums, I really wasn't expecting these comments. Really makes me miss my Mk3! That said, I'll still be posting up dope Mk3s in the appreciation thread - you never really forget your first HAHA.

                  Unfortunately I'll be moving to something newer, but definitely still VAG. Just need something reliable and comfy to get to uni and work, I've deprived myself of A/C and powersteering and now I want it back lol. Mark my words though, there will be another Mk3 later. My visions for a Mk3 wasn't fully realised with this!

                  Aydan, FYI I was considering the diesel haha. Congrats on it selling, it was never going to stay in the classifieds long.

                    Sad to see that this is the end for SH73OX Ray.

                    Always loved seeing the progression, and gotta love the DIY! Nothing better than doing it yourself.
                    Subtle mods throughout the car were always a treat.

                    Still have so much respect for driving down to SEDF 09, THAT low. brilliant!

                    p.s. You know you posting the mk 3's in the appreciation thread is what made me get one! Keep it up!

                    super keen to see what you can do on a newer dub

                          I just debadged my mk3 in memory of SH73OX. It really was one of the most inspiring cars. I really liked what you did with it.

                          Can't wait to see what you do next!
