I Have Converted...

From this:


To This:



I have owned Honda's for many years now, but always had a soft spot for Golf's. I've now gratuated from Uni and have a job in the city, so i decided to sell the Type R and buy something more economical and comfortable to drive in traffic everyday. It is a 2001 GL, that had one lady owner who kept it in immaculate condition.

Plans for the car:
Not much at all... Just a nice set of wheels, tinted windows and slightly lower it. I don't plan on touching the engine (yet).

I'd like to either get some R32 wheels or these wheels:

Nice Golf dude.

...also think about a rear sway bar - improves handling considerably... talk to mikinoz (on this forum) for more info.

Cheers

Tidy looking GL there. Well done! I ran Konis and Ebaich springs in my mk4 and found that a hell of an improvement. If you are going to fit lower springs I highly reccomend going to some decent shockers. Cheers, Andrew

Nice ride. I have a hot cam for the golf just as soon as you want more revs. Eibach springs are a pucka option with original dampers. I prefer the audi rims over the R32 ones.

The new car is a nicely sophisticated choice and one that you will enjoy.
