Coming to Golf+ soon…

September 20, 2011

Interior and engine bay colour coordination, G60 power, stainless split shoes. This car has been in bits for the last two years and has made a big impression at every summer show Dave has made it to this year. More to come by all accounts including some trick touches in the bay and bits and bobs going on over the winter. Watch out for a forthcoming Golf+ feature too.

Six cylinders and twenty cans of booze. No VR6′s were harmed in the making of this photograph.

I’m a fuel injected suicide machine!

A little bit of this, and a little bit of that…

August 16, 2011
