New toy...again

Post by ginger ninja »

I know I should have listen to Nige but after having so much fun at the track night in the vectra I felt that it needed a few things done to it but weighing it up the car wasnt worth doing mainly because of 2 MR2's :wink:

So I bought a MR2 and had it for 2 weeks, super little car but just not right for me, so.........

I have bought a Golf VR6 :D :D :D

We had a mk2 Gti years ago and had so much fun in it but the VR6 is so much better, to be honest its rearly to good to completly strip so I am going to do the basics, firstly need to get some new shocks as one is leaking and the front wishbone bushes need doing, little bit of rust but nothing serious for a 16 year old car.

So if anyone knows about these please help me :D

Indeed Daniel, cant waite for the next track event.
But to be honest the MR2 was not the best of cars again it needed a bit of work and weighing up the costs it was best to move it on.

I think the golf is a good basis to start with, the engine is superb.
I am having soooooooo much fun driving it :D

Nice purchase fella!!!!

There were a couple of VR6's at Marham in April and they were absolutely flying (until one of them rolled it).

Good choice!!!
James is looking for the next trackday...
