That looks awesome, really like how the side stripe looks with that paint colour. Nice engine pic too, looks like you take good care of it

cheers for that yes its my baby so to speak, have spent a lot on it over the last 18months or so got a new carpet to fit this winter and other bits its like the 4th road bridge there's always something to do it looks better than the pic below this happened 1st April 2006 afer some git ran me off the road ,as i was overtaking him in his trani van he decided to pull out and overtake the car in front of him i was doing about 75mph when i hit the hedge row very nearly turn over. All fixed now car had to go on a jig to straighten her up. as well as loads of reconstruction ,that's why its got single headlamp grill and the chrome side stripes which i feel do look better than the standard black.

i have no idea what type mine is

but its from '89, its 1,8 and looks like this:

i have no idea why but i love those wheels.

also, my cover for the soft top is covered in black marks (possibly oil, or residue off the spare tyre) i have no idea how to clean them off, i wouldnt mind but they are a bit obvious on a silver hood... any ideas?

My vote for the GLi, not biased of course!

Thank you for the specification of my Cabrio's type

and you are most welcome

could anyone elaborate as to what "specialties" the different types came with?

(I.E. whats special about the clipper?)

Dub, Your cab looks fab!

P.S.
I am planning to use a couple of weekends when i get my license in early 2008, to thorougly clean and shine it up. especially the hood and the paint job. I'll post pictures as it progresses.

here a few pics of my 98 Gti cab

That's optimistic.

Nice car but I've never been a fan of the 'M3 style' lights and the eyebrow thingy.
