Does anybody remember the first TT 16v turbo MK2 demo car it was Oak green and had the dual boost switch on the dash I think it was either in Fast Car of CCC and if I remember correctly the mag also had a feature on a twin turbo supra.... That MK 2 started all the VW madness for me I wonder where that car is now...it has a lot to answer for.. Edited by: VR6T
vw inspired me....im just refining probably the one car that kick started me into actually modding my car was russdubs J90 DUB. when i saw him on the a3 about 2 years ago. next year im going for the mag style car and the one car that sticks out in my mind is chris p's old car. what a stunning motor
Dad's first mk1 GTi (no.7 in the UK), then his three Ur Quattros (the last was a Treser), then his 928, then his mates loony 911 Turbo, and another mates Lotus Elan SE (it may have been 70s but it was stunning).
oh i forgot 1990 inspired me to put mk3 interior in valver for g60 arches and the wide look, just wish my wheels were made 9inch so i could properly carry it off
Na that Mk1 he built it up from a new shell,it had a engine done by BR motorsport 1802cc giving 180bhp to which can be boosted to 240bhp or 290bhp with two-stage nitros oxide injection system. My first visit to GTI International done to me,was 10 years ago mind Edited just to please someone Edited by: andymark1
All G60 always used to be my favourite car at the shows, this picture really does'nt do the car justice it really is superb Pete
Dunno if any of you remember a lad called Rob Pinning from way back on the e-groups list, I really like his car and it was probably the reason my first mk2 looked like it did. Nothing special, 15" steels 2 lamp grill with BB and late CL spats but very low... got wrecked as i recall Since then Reeves and Vanstone have been to blame for my current project (should it ever hit the track of course, its just blown a good gearbox...)
Is that the sleeper, Jake? They're more trouble than they're worth! (See my members' motors thread for the latest troubles I've been having.) I've liked a lot of cars over the years but the one that actually influenced me the most was probably Malc Ring's (used to post on the old forum as Bullit) gold 210bhp(?) Grant Motorsport mk1 2.0 16V. Ratty standard looks, Golf C badge on the back and plenty of power. Anyone got any pictures of it?
two cars mainly, gary pooles astragte 16v. caged, throttle bodied. and steve heleys with the same treatment
i just saw a blue 1100 mk1 knocking about round town and fell in love with the shape/looks. so i had to have one. neil.
