    it's obvious that this car spends time on the track so the yellow wheels flow with the motorsport feel. WIN!

    Once again...I love this Mk2. Some of the trickey you did under the hood &
    with the brakes is awesome. It'd be waaaay to much fun to
    be co-pilot on a few laps.
    Once you get that turbo it's gunna be nasty!!!!!!!

    Usually wheels make the car. In this case the car makes the wheels.

    Car has been neglected past 2 years as health hasn't been great - getting it up and running in a non turbo state as sold the bits for the turbo.

    Sorry to hear your health hasn't been good. Hope to see this car up and running again. Any thought about going back to a 16V?

    Glad to see you're still around. Hope you get better. I was asking the guys @ MK2VR6 have they heard from you as you haven't posted over there in a bit.
