Well as I keep blowing up engines, I've ended up needing a nice normal car to get to work in whilst I build a beauter motor for the Opel. So here it is, my MK2 1.6 Jetta.  Now my intention was not to spend any money on it. However, I drove it once and baught some cheap coilovers because I felt like a bus driver. And those wheels offend me. A fwd drive car... that I'm spending money on, argh haha |

If you can get round your anti fwd'ness ( this may be difficult  ) You'll actually find they're pretty capable handlers, I use my mk1 and mk2 golfs everyday ( can't do with the E28's thrist !) make sure you do the cambelt if you don't know when it was last done otherwise you'll blow up another one !  |

Hahaha. The first thing I did today when I woke up, is bust out a hair drier and remove the sunstrip. Much better  I've also invested in coilovers. Mmm 120mm drop. If anyone has some VW steelies in the east mids, please let me know |
