    i guess the time has come when Ive realised that I will need to sell this at some point. Ive spent a small fortune on this, and I know Ill lose money, but it is the best one I know of and comes with a complete spare bodykit and a few other things too. PM me with serious offers

    Im looking at moving to Oz so, whilst im in no rush, i do need to look at liquidising my UK assets. Its too good a car to take out there as the sun would kill it. Women- definately not as the ex is the only one kinda in the picture, and if I dont sort stuff with her, ill be working out in Oz early next year and investigating a permanant move

    Well if you do move out there would you consider letting your GTI engineering steering wheel go to a good home? ;)

    [​IMG]

    Out right now and its the magazine I always wanted the car featured in. There are a few exclusive pics too of the GT Specials at GTi Engineering, Silverstone taken at the time.

    Fook that made me laugh!

    Here in Oz we say we don't want to get cars from England because of the rust.

    My MK2 GTI still has an imaculate dashboard which the sun hasn't killed yet, let alone the paintwork.

    Cheers

    I've briefly flicked through the article, looks lovely. I like the car transporter with just GT Specials on it. But as with many Mk2 Jettas, the rear suspension does not look right on all of those cars lined up.
