  • My 'rides'

    So here is my mk3 Phattie. She is the air con model (although saying that i dont know if they produced different models in Australia so excuse my ignorance)







    And then Gwyneth, my mk2 project






    Yes i know the tyres are huge, low pro's on their way lol.....
    So many plans and only 8 months to get close to finishing for show season.

          How did you not? we have the 8v and 16v here. Did you get the VR?
          Well even more reason for one of you lovely people to buy mine, and have your very own, rare as rocking horse sh*t, gti

            Yeah.. we never got the Mk3 GTI, we have the VR6 but only in 4 door. however, our neighour (new zealand) has the mk3 GTI and 2 Door VR.

              Lol we have those too.
              The 2dr/3dr VR is quite a rare find over here too, they are far more common in the 5dr/4dr.

              Sadly the mk3 is my favourite of the golf's but has probaby caused me the most hassle. I have replaced all the big things on that car except the engine. lol

              Gearbox, clutch, powersteering pump etc etc. lol.

              Cant wait to get going with the mk2.

                      Hehe why thank you.

                      Polo 1.6.... see now i know the polo is smaller than the golf, meaning lighter, but a 1.6 is the smallest engine i have driven. Wouldnt realy wanna go down in engine size now would i. lol.

                      I really wanna get a nice oldskool mk1/2 jetta or passat estate after project golfie.

                      Only ever had golfs to be fair. lol

                        its the weazy-ist underpowered crap heap you can drive, but i did put weitecs in it and with sticky rubber i could get the inside wheel a foot off the ground

                        next project for me is currently undecided, but its gotta be rediculously quick

                              nice cars mate. love the mk2 - they look so cheeky with the single headlight grills. very nice.

                              i have seen a mk3 gti in australia - a couple actually. sydney people keep your eyes peeled. i know theres one around castle hill and i've seen one somewhere around pymble too.
