Hello fellow MK3's recently purchased a silver MK3 1.8L 97 GL 4Door.The car is in a descent condition for its age.Motor looks stock with no aftermarket parts or air filters but sounds nice.Only issues i can see is the Air Con not working prob just needs regasing as it turns on also power windows at the back not functioning wont go up or down will let a mate of mine have a look if its just loose wiring or the motor/regulator problem.Small rust above windscreen prob 3 cms long and and maybe same on the top of the back right door.

As posted previously the 17inch wheels that came with car have some gutter rash which i want to fix as i like the rims i think they might be some kind of BBS wheel.Car has leather interior black with headrest on all seats 1 seat is worn an would eventually replace or get repaired.Roofling needs replacing no biggie can wait while i fix other things first.Bumpers are color coded with some scratches paint starting to peel off no biggie as its not accident damaged.Basically thats the car i will put some pics up as soon as i find my camera n sofware for it as this is a new pc.Lost my Iphone 3 weeks ago n my old dont have a camera.

Going to treat this as a project as i want to eventually do it up a touch.Plus iam months away from getting a licence keeps me occupied and less chance of taking it out for a drive.Apart from the few things i have mentioned above my priorities are going to be getting all the electricals right,forgot to mention theres some unwanted wiring in the boot as the previous owner had what looks like a massive system installed and thank god, he must of used boxes as the car hasn't got any unwanted holes on the parcel tray.Also the fog lights dont turn on.Taking out the bumpers and respraying .

I eventually like to get it full resprayed in either Reflex Silver or some kinda of Gun Metal Grey.
Motor wise will like and upgrade eventually what would be the easiest way around it? If i was to go 1.8 Turbo or even 2.0 Turbo is it a straight swap or other things i need to know? Also if theres any RTA implications or just a matter of getting a Blue Slip?


Thanks in advance
