TC-DNB Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 It was a sad moment watching my cabby drive away, but i soon forgot all about it once i'd picked this up and driven it home! It's a Jazz blue colour concept with VR6 conversion. 6-2-1 manifold, Milltek exhaust system and ajustable suspension all round. Also has full leather interior (heated Recaros ) Rolling on Merc rims thanks to hub adapaters. These will be getting a refurb soon (undecided what colour though....polished/blue/black or other???) http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj208/TC-DNB/IMG_2548.jpghttp://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj208/TC-DNB/IMG_2536.jpg So far i have fitted the Hella twin headlights, LED rear lights, Momo steering wheel and new VR6 mats. Also came with no grill so chucked on a black GTi one from a scrapped Golf in the yard. The motor has been laid up for about 6months so it needed a massive clean inside and out which i had no problem with doing, and also given her a service. http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj208/TC-DNB/IMG_2527.jpgI will be getting rid of the green don't worry! 2.8 V6 lump is amazing, so much torque! I know VW's aren't to everyones taste but this is easily the best driving motor i've owned (and quickest). 0-60 isn't amazing but it hits 150mph (so im told from previous owner). Ive seen 125 and it had loads left in it. Comments welcome as always Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sidrick Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Will be following this for sure. Can I borrow your private test track at some point? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TC-DNB Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 Will be following this for sure. Can I borrow your private test track at some point? Cool, i'll grab some interior pics at some point. Any opinion on the wheel colour change? I originally wanted black with a polished lip, but now thinking completely polished. Also had the idea of blue but i think it may be too much blue. Blue lip or inserts maybe? LOL @ your question Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ganges Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 just my opinion, but think goldish colour might suit it???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TC-DNB Posted March 6, 2012 Author Share Posted March 6, 2012 just my opinion, but think goldish colour might suit it???? I had thought about it (like the lip edge now)...but i reckon it'll be a marmite thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McRic Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Love it, my vr6 was one of my favourite cars, had I kept it it would've been turbod by now. My mates is undergoing another massive revamp for this show season. If you're interested say the word and I'll fire you the updates once he actually releases them.

Ahmotorsport Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 That's alright that is. I do like an engine bay where pretty much all you can see is a big lump of metal. Black & Polished lip ftw. Paint the green, yellow, instant 20BHP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naylor2006 Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 (edited) I dont even like golfs..... This however is well nice, love the styling, might not be everyones tastes but im all over this! This car is obnoxious (in a good way) so blue rims would probably be the way to go, or white, anything to make it look rude!

massivewangers Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 I'm not in to the euro business with the wheels and stuff, but I have got a bit of a soft spot for these. Bet it sounds tasty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yule Posted March 6, 2012 Share Posted March 6, 2012 Cool car & nice colour, like the lights front & back. Bet it's sounding great at 6k revs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
