Adi's mk2 valver

Been to pick up yet another mk2 golf today, knew it wouldn't be long before I was back in one

1988 E plate gti 16v "campaign" 10 millionth special edtition
Helios blue metallic
Coilovers
ABF cams
Electric windows (working!)
Central locking (also working!)
Jetex exhaust
14x9 banded steelies

Will take some pics tomorrow when I've put all the arch trim and plastics back on, as they have been removed!
And this is the 1st car I've ever been pulled in during a test drive (surprise surprise because of the wheel pokage!)

These are the only pics I have at the mo...

oooooooooooooooooooooo adi got it!! nicely done mate,more pics dude,was it as good as u hoped?

Very Nice

To be honest, the bodywork isn't as good as I'd hoped, but it drives better than I thought it would. Anyways I knocked him down accordingly, and I can't stop smiling everytime I boot it! Them ABF cams make a noticable difference to a normal valver!

I'm 95% I'm gonna big bumper this one though, mainly because it has a poor patch up job on the rear valance. But I wanna bring it up to date, maybe with some 90 spec arches and skirts.

It's even come with wing mirror blanks for shows!

sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet man she looks well sweet

That is the fuzkin bomb! just what i want mine too look like...

loving the stance mate.. nicely done

thanks guys, i love it, reminds me of everything i love about mk2s, you even have to tap the dash to make a dash light come on behind the clocks! now thats a proper old mk2!

the bootlid is rotten badly though, but they gave me a mint mars red gti bootlid, that I'm gonna attempt the paint up, without taking the vinyl off from around the back window

That looks sweet as.

But one thing u sold the vento cus u couldnt afford the petrol but a valver will drink alot more??????????????????

the thing is this really doesn't mate. Them AGG engines are thirsty and lazy. I managed 35mpg all the way back from gloucestershire doing 80-90 all the way, and for once the MFA wasn't lying!

Gave it a wash and chamois earlier, no point polishing it until my arches are back on, as the glue won't set on the polished surface. Here's a pic this morning after the wash, putting arches and trim back on now

ha ha ha ja is not going to be happy now you have got that .... looks nice ady take that back... but whats the mil on the 'e' reg... how much did you pay for the car????

The car has done 191k, but is on a 100k engine, and lets just say I paid the going rate for average condition valvers, only this one has the bonus of a mint bootlid and spares, oh and them uber deep rims

arches and rub strips are now back on, looks a lot better, very pleased with it, will polish her up this afternoon

looks cool

looks nice mate. its mk2's like that that got me interested in dubs in first place

looks the tits mate

thanks for the comments guys, it looks better in pics than it really is though! just been given a machine buffer, so gonna buff her up good n proper. will post pics up later, not that it'l look much different!

Looks nice mate, I would drive that

Car's all buffed up and spangly now, really pleased with it, helios blue really is a nice colour

Next job is to clean up the interior, source the missing trim bits, big bumpers, and paint my mint bootlid thats sat in my garden goin even more pink lol

is it just me that dont like the stretched tyres "thing" then????
Looks cool apart from them

dunno mate,i got some mad stretch but thats for purpose aswell as looks!

That looks the fuckin' nuts man! I say leave the small bumpers on too!

you wouldn't say that if you saw the welding work on the rear valance!

Is it a bit bad? Surely not too bad to sort? Just I'm small bumpers all the way mate, too oldskool ya see!
