Get that rear end down and i will be a big fan of this car...

Fitted the coilovers the other day but cant drop the rear as much as i want till i make the recess in the sill to allow the tailpipe to sit flush. Once thats done therell be a substantial drop on the cards :? Few other bits and bobs on the way. The leather went in without too much hassle and has made a massive difference. Mucho comfiness :wink:

All in well chuffed, first mk3 vr estate in the uk? :?

Cheers for all the comments

well....its been an odd few weeks full of crap.

cracked sump and ripped front splitter off, fitted new sump and splitter (thanks missus) and already found another dent in the new sump and a crack in the new splitter.

On way to work the other day, car died completely, smoke coming from under bonnet. Found loom going to maf on fire. Didnt have phone so had to walk the few miles back home to phone rac then walk back to the car. Got car home and replaced the loom and vroom away he went again.

Parked up in Bromley yesterday, (after arguing with the dealers about ordering the wrong bloody parts for both myself and m15vw) came back and found someone has put a fecking big dent in the tailgate!! this is the day after i spent some time debadging and removing the rear wiper...hmmm....what will today hold for me? going to try and push the dent out, polish rims and get two new tyres fitted....maybe i should just give up and hide under the duvet

Mate, this is looking so good!

 

The drop at the back makes it look "Battleship-long" in the photos...

 

Keep going and don't let the Feckers drag you down... If they seem like they are, stick the missus on them :norty:

Are you planning to flare the arches on the back Gav to tuck the wheels under a bit?

 

Does look cool, definately.. but I just love the thought that it has a VR6 lump nestled under the bonnet :)

not seen many side exit exhausts i like, but that actually looks alright

 

i think when its hidden in a plank of fibreglass side skirt they look naff

 

could someone burn their leg tho getting out the back?

Not wanting to sound critical but the rear shot reminds me of the old sierra estate!

 

Wheels look much much better coloured, really liking the way this has come together, well done for doing something different!
