i don't think i will be making it  , the car need some love  1st   

little bit of a update seats looking like some one had pooped  them selves  

and them after  1 valet  , not  100% happy  so getting them done again  

when i bought the car it had a brand new momo steering wheel on it  


but i found a real good mk 1 gti wheel  

4 wheel lazer alignment  

car has been flattened and polished  bit better and shinnier than before  

Excellent progress all round, well done! 

Are you thinking about changing the wheels, if so, what are you thinking of?

The seats are coming up nicely

thanks bro  i see from your aviator you have one also  

Mine is a non runner at the moment. But it would be nice to get mine to a similar standard to yours.

You've made good progress with that.
