That GTI badge is different! You might end up taking it off though in the next 6months lol.
Cage looks well tidy.
And think i'll spectate down Donny, see it in action :wink:
Also I'll go MFN next year if you are lol, that way I don't have to arrive with a bunch of Saxo's

brought it from a guy i work with at the proving ground, it came out of a mk1 track car he brought to use for bits, sat in his garage for a couple of years collecting dust and point stains untill i took it off his hands for ?100
quick sand down and spray in silver and bobs your uncle. i believe its a safety devices cage, and it has a code and year staped onto one of the front feet plates so its pucka, not some home made thingy.
