    Ah .. the old Deutchcar Mk2 VR6 I think. Resprayed, obviously.

    I had a chance to go for a ride in that back in the day, but bottled it ... [:$]

    None really, just always had golfs in the family and loved the MK2, and had to be big bumper MK2's, so i had to have one, then just chose the parts i'd always wanted and fitted them ;)
