This has been on the forum last time it was for sale, I quite like it but think it needs to be lower and would look better without the chrome bits round the windows etc - also needs to have a bigger engine to make sure it lives up to its looks

I too think it is a pretty good piece of historic tuning history - NEEDS a powerful engine though of ridculous BHP…..

We can't all drive std cars - no fun it that ….

...er....I actually quite like it. Agree it needs a beefy engine though.

Owning a Mk1 cabby is a vertical learning curve…

I spoke to the guy who looks after the VW Press Fleet last year, including the silver Mk1. They have made the following changes:

- BBS kit removal
- taken off the BBS RAs and put on the Pirelli Ps
- put on a new grille (the reason why the GTi badge was in the wrong position was to hide a broken one!)

Haven't seen it out recently though!

I think the Reiger kits look terrible, they completely spoil the lines of an already classic design. The front end looks like its had an arguement with a Corrado and lost. Each part of a Mk1 has a (well) engineered function - this kit has none.

If I were fed up of life and going to shoot myself..(please see thread titled Vauxhall nova, big bore exhaust, baseball cap…Blam!) I would deffinately add this chap to my list of people who were gonna get it first! Ruining a classic is bad enough, but with low mileage too….I'm speechless!
If you live next door to this idiot, don't ever agree to go on changing rooms with him!  8O
