After 17 years it's almost back on the road

That has been a labour of love. Don't think I could sustain the enthusiasm. Car does you credit.

 

Yes the enthusiasm did disappear for a couple of years here and there . It was the now wife's daily when she was 18 and I blew up the diff and said don't worry I'll fix it. Only took 17 years . At least now I can sort out my r5 turbo (raider) which was laid up the same time as her's was. I'm hoping it won't take as long

 

Stunning job there, looks better than factory

 

Awesome

 

Had the car ceramic coated.

 

Did you smooth the arches / sill covers yourself?, bet it took an age to do!.

Almost too good to drive.

 

They had already been done before I got the car 20 years ago, but I did have to do the arch's as I replaced the GTi one's for g60. Lots of sanding and high build primer.

 

What colour is it?

 

It's original colour schwazblau L52M . (Black blue)

 

It's a mad colour , all the pics inside the garage look black

 

Yeah it's a great colour for a standard base colour. It sort of flips between black, blue and purple depending on what angle you look at it.

 

Wow thats beautiful! Defo worth all the effort!

 

That looks fantastic well done on all the hard work

 

Stunning MK2 buddy. And I must say, its nice to see a 90 spec colour-coded big bumper kit again ( I had one many moons ago ).
