Looking good man, what is your plan for the car? It looks very smart body wise, I can't tell if thats rust or a little bit of dirt ont he front archs but the car generally looks well cared for.

Have you done anything to it yet? I can see you have done a cpl of little things, side repeaters etc.

[the wicker man]

nowt major done to it yet apart from new suspension & brakes & few genral bits & bobs & zorst system to fit on over weekend

Class car mate, that red paint looks very nice!
TSW Evo 1s were my fav wheel back in the day, with those on you really will be "Keeping it old school" Nice one :)

[the wicker man]

i bought it on just the bodywork really eveything can be fixed lol the inside is well like new tbh evon got a while to go b4 i hit 100K

cant fault it really

think it will look much better on the evo's got that extra inch, luv to have words with the last owner as to why he spent £400 on 14inch alloys hmmmmmm i know were he got the alloys from local company to me wood have cost £80 more for the 15s O'well i'll be happy when there on

If they are the 6 spoke evo's I don't like them that much, how ever the 7 spoke evo's are well sexy

[the wicker man]

see if i can find a pic there the evo 1s cum out around 98 time

nope cant find one swear i took a pic of the wheels yesterday :confused:

[caul pope]

The original TSW Evos (which maybe different from Evo 1s) came out a lot earlier than 98. More like 93, anyway this is a pic (sh!t I know) of the original evo;

[the wicker man]

one day...

[the wicker man]

im not one for tarting up cars to much but i always wanted that kit on my scirocco

[caul pope]

Scirocco is a classic, then came the Corrado, which I loved especially the ltd 'storm' model. What have VW got now? Shame really not to continue that breed of sports-hatch.

I know its the ****ing epitome of lovlyness, makes me go weak at the knees thinking about owning one in black gloss with a gold pearl.

[caul pope]

Max Power had a project car called.... (really original).... Mad Max. It was back around 97ish me thinks. It was a Corrado with the same Reiger kit on and I loved it. Apart from the paint and the install - man it was ugly.

i remember that "thing" not much you can say with a paint job like that :p

[REMUS]

I think that kit suits it down to the ground, see if you can find some pic's of the corrado, i'm intrigued as to what they did to the poor thing.
