16v abf, yeah boy

I dig your car and the fact you love the scene so much. If you can genuinely bring in the gear you are talking about for close to the prices you are referring to landed, then all power to you and you will have me as a customer for I am sick of being shafted. 16V ABF exhaust mani for MK1 is my next target, that is prime territory for being reamed on freight.

Look forward to meeting you and your car.

All the wheels are used, usually in good condition but needing refurbishment in 1 form or other and as for prices for parts, these are not fixed as yet but as always if I bring pallets over then its a single charge split over all the goods, I have to still work out how customs will charge for obviously used items as opposed to new stock.

Only time will tell but as Mikinoz rightly said some of the prices I've quoted for out there on parts are outragous

How much of the work do you do by your self?
Every time I see an update it seems surrounded by other mk2 in background?
Not trying to take away anything from you just qurious.

about 20% tops,

a lot of the donkey work to be fair, prep work in the bay, prep work for the carbon and fabrication of some of the parts, all the underside of the car stripping and re-wax, stripping all suspension components down and fitting the air in a lock up just bigger than the car, changed all the bushes, all the sound deadening including roof, all of the interior install, all the braking system, some of the wiring, I could never have done the paint, engine or stitching the interior or sounds, I actually traded my time on others cars in exchange for work on mine and in some cases built showrooms in exchange for ramp time in various garages around the uk.

All the finishes were performed by people who knew what they were doing as opposed to a monkey (that'll be me) who would have taken 4 times longer with the same eventual outlay but not result

The only real hardship I've had is doing a 3 hour journey every week end to work on it when I could take the time off

I can however guarantee all the detailing s mine, if that counts for anything, lol
