Needless to say, the GIF above was a piss take.
Pictures as promised
Mike, the mighty MK2 and the Cupra

Up she goes

The man in action

Ballast! I knew those bloody wheels would come in handy

I'm done

Mike's done

Painted rear badge

My helper (I should have asked Bess to pick the colour; she would have done a better job than Halfords did)

More paint

Finished..............kind of.

I lost out on a decat and downpipe on eBay but haven't given up yet as I know where another one lives

I have put a bid in on some black alloys and I think I'll be buying Mike's bucket seat (I forgot to mention that Mike.........first dibs when you know what you want for it

)
Onwards and upwards

Not bad for a couple of hours work.
