    You've done it again George,from turning something that looked like it came from the scrap yard to a million buck in like overnight.

    Man I really need to get my cabby on the road ASAP.

    Just do it. Btw they ride very well, suspension is a little more refined to std mk1 with front and rear sways as standard.

    Not sure to be honest Paul, This one doesn't have any sway bars. But with the coils handles ok. I'm going to take it up to the mountains for a cruise when the weather gets better and give it a push, see how it holds up! I'd imagine the stiffer chassis would be great.

    Engine however........ Is gutless!!!!

    This reminds me the weekend i put coilovers into my 1.6 4 door, took it for a mountain run and was brilliant fun even without lots of power because you can just have your foot flat around corners. Lucky our cars are also light weight!

    Very excited to get my 2 door on the road, Im probably going to plan a road trip down to Sydney, mountain runs along the way will be fun as, than go visit Zen Garage.
