Car was new April 2002
The car was formerley owned by Allied Grain Berwick upon Tweed Scotland, where it was a reps car. It had full service history at Western VW Edinburgh, with oil changes every 10k and had just under 80K when i was introduced to it.
I fell in love with this Golf in 2005...
A mate ( 2nd hand car dealer) lent it to me as my car was off the road. I took it to Croft to watch the Touring cars and was very impressed by it. I asked him how much it was going for and got it for £7500 cash. It replaced a 1994 Astra mk4 1.7 TD the issuzzu engined vauxhall which Id had from 6 month old. It pretty much stayed standard for a long time. I put a set of R32 rims on which were a Xmas present and left it at that for a while ...the more I browsed this forum the more ideas I got. It started with a K&N filter and 80mm cold air feed. I also got a very expensive German tuning box for reasonable money from a mate. Then one day it was down on power and that was traced to a choked up EGR and inlet manifold. I did the EGR delete and ran it for a while till I finally got a coilover kit due the susspension been rather saggy. It had a full set of zimmerman drilled discs and greenstuff pads put on for the MOT Aug 06....so that was the start of me spending a fortune
This was it in its totally origional condition
Then with the R32 rims
