Miss a little bit both my Impreza Turbo & MK2 golf....wish id kept them both longer but both had to be sold as they didnt really suit my transportational requirements at the time





A mate bought 5 mins round the corner bought the scoob & promptly smashed it into a fence & the golf went to a nice guy that appreciates his mk2 golfs.

It wasnt that low. Did have ultra skinny stretched tyres on it though!



My work takes me 70 miles a day, I didnt think a 18yr old car in which I had rebuilt the engine was up to it, plus it was almost mint, would be a shame to waste it as an every day runabout.

Yeah it was missing, I had a red stripe grill in my spares but that one on it was brand new, it had brand new hella lights, & new badges all round aswell so I just left it to compliment the newness theme. lol

Cant remember ratios, it was good on fuel though.

You realise you could of just polished and waxed it to get it red
