Sooooooo!!
Hi everybody, i never introduce you my cabrio. This forum helps me so much when i decide to swap my engine from the original to an ADY 2.0 8v from a mk3 gti, so it's time for me to give her all the glory that she needs ahah So, when i buyed it was like this:
Pretty much normal cabrio… the good think was the the interior was like new and outside had only few problems!
In few weeks it became this
New coilover and new wheels… 6 front and 8 rear Pic of me take care of her! (what a boring job! ahah)
After one year that i buy it, i decide that the 1.6 was obsolete, so talk with some guys and decide to put a little more 'funny' engine. It's not the super swap that I'm usualy see at Worthersee ore in some pics, but i want more fun when i drive it, so, new engine
(No the mk3 is not the donator of the engine… it's my dad's thirt car ahah)
And finally! She is alive!!
Last year I decided that the interior need and upgrade… i saw a lot of topics (here too!) for the tt seat and i'm fall in love… so… tt seats!
This is not a big upgrade…. paint fresh for all the car and now she shines like a little diamond
I hope you like it, and be nice with my bad bad bad english I know is not the big works that you're usually interesting, but it's my first car, and i'm so proud of her…

- thanks for putting the photos up. Everything works together really well, you must be happy with it!
What country are you from? I hadn't worked it out from the photos or the car number plate

Well thank you for stopping by. At our annual meeting last year we had a chap drive his MK1 Golf all the way from Milan to the show for the weekend. Maybe you can do the same this year??

Hi, great looking cabby you've got there.

I've just come back from there and had a wonderful time but sadly not updated the post yet, will do this weekend!
Keep the pictures coming please!

I agree with all the other replies…that is one lovely looking cabby. I am rather jealous as I like to modify but have to preserve my Sportline's originality. But well done, you have done a great job.
