    My mk2 golf 1.8t

    This is my golf, started as a project around 8 months ago or so. It was originally a 1.3cl, my first car on the road some years ago. I've been gathering parts for a while now and still in need of loads more

    Started out like this;




    Stripped!!


    Bay painted;


    Getting the APY lump ready;


    Engine in;


    Underneath all sealed and exhaust on. Powdercoated rear beam in too.


    Some of the wiring heartache!!


    Engine plumbed and running;



    o.e diagnostic socket;


    Rm's split and polished;
