going original gti style with this full gti trim and 1.9 alloys polished up stripped interior etc etc

Mate of mine had a mint black 1.9 GTi.... which he then promptly cartwheeled through a hedge! :o

[coxie]

lmao cartwheeled .. never a gud idea lol .. hope ya mate was ok like ..


shud be a gud project car i think :) old skool contrast to my nova

[NovaloadedAgain]

Ive driven a 1.9GTi before & I really liked it. Nice one mate :wink:

[m.d.]

dam good cars. out handle novas by a long way even/especially with standard suspension. and the Mi 16 is a good transplant engine as its ally block so keeps the handling

[ANDYRACER]

Id love one of them but can't get insured on one and the parts arent as cheap as on the nova.

[J4MES]

aye really like that...should be a good project...
