damn... Nice car, especially on the first pics! Nice place to shoot some pics with an European car, could be placed in a VW magazine right away!

I'd fancy the first set of rims better than the RH's, but that is ofcourse for you to decide!

Welcome.

hey guys thanks for the great comments, here are a few more pictures back as a daily driver!
As luck would have it i poilshed my "garage" over the long weekend so my car was nice an clean atleast!
here a few pictures of our group breakfast :lol:

Details on the cars:

The silver MKI is an 2007 R line 1,8i with 272 and kit (OEM from vw - minus the stickers)
The dark greyish bluish car is my womens car its a 2004 MKI 1.4i with 288 cam (84kw) and Vr6 wheels (we fitted 280mm disks, for 2 reason's firstly new MK I brakes are still crap, and secondly here new motor is almost done we hoping for 115kw+ 2,0lt 8v mp9)
The polo is a friends car,its 2006 1,4i, it has stagged wheels and red leather retrim!
The red MK II is mine, the wheels rub on the fenders and the front lip touches if you go too fast on a bumpy road!

Meeting across the road from a friends work! How convenient! ^_^ he must have got the polo cheap!








on the road!








and first obstacle! I :wub: speedbumps!




and finally getting there! This is the parking lot! Its a small house which is converted into a little coffee shop across the road from the beach!


and stopping on the way back




also managed to get a few nice shots of my wheel while i was driving :lol:













hope you guys like them!

Cheers Amish

yes it is, it was pretty hard, but i'm running the polo injection also!
You need to go to www.photobucket.com and open an account!
Then you copy the [IMG] file (last one under thumbnail) and you paste
that into your thread!

[img] url of the picture [/img]

you have to upload your picture somewhere (in the gallery of this forum, or somewhere else online).


Small remark;
I do not really like the 6N2 dash; but that may be caused by the flashy bright dails and radio. They kinda disturb the smooth LED's of the standard VW lighting.

But still, nice car!

The dash is my favorite thing in the car! Makes it feel like a new car inside

I do want to change the guages thou! Unfortunately i can't spend more money on the red car! only once the 16v is on the road can i fiddle with it!

I forgot to put a picture of the engine!
