While cruising back from Ford Fair on sunday, I took a pick of this MK2 Golf.



Looked mint... Anyone know who it belongs too...? Was taken on M6 North bound I think...

We then dropped into the slow lane and they took a pic of Stundies Escort Cossie

 

dunno, but those wheels look like Ronal Turbos

 

Indeed they are, i think the chap is a member on a dub forum i visit, its a 16v GTi

 

come to mention it who where the FRS boys I was having a play with on the way home?

Not in a gay way though

 

Send him a link to here please... Can swap pics lolI was passenger in the Imperial blue Escort Cos...

 

Yep this is definatly the guy after some detective work



Ive sent him a pm, ill post back when hes replied

 

looks pretty standard apart from wheels and suspension!

 

and??

what would you do to it? lexus lights and black out windows with 19" spinners?
I rest my case

 

I used to have one eaxctly the same!

 

Don't matter what it is really... Just looked tidy and slammed How a Golf should be, Took a pic and give him the thumbs up, next thing you know, he over took us and from knowhere his passenger pulled a camera out... We respected his motor, and he respected Si's motor. Thats what its all about, makes it worth it...There was no racing, just cruised on by...
Hope the on the move pic of Si's Cossie come out well.

Cheers for the detective work

 

I think the point is "bothered", as its a nice car, but there are hundreds of Golfs similar.

Not exactly imaginative. A low Golf on common as much wheels. Oh Lordy.

 

i know what i would do...


20v turbo engine

 

You don't see them everywhere in this condition anymore though. . . No different to every Cossie and RST owner really...
Anything different is classed as Chav pretty much... The DUB lads know how to do it though, keep the bodywork smooth and slammed. Ronal Turbo rims are my choice for a MK1 or MK2...

My old MK1 1300 driver



Was sold to some lad up Newcastle way, He had a 20v turbo lump waiting to go in...

 

yeah i know im not thick, if hes not bothered then why post, i dont need to know that some random internet bod is not bothered

Anyhow the thread isnt about the car really.

 

Cheers again, Fingers crossed he comes back to you with a nice pic of the Cossie

 

as long as he wasnt pointing an old mobile phone at you it should come out ok

 

I used my camera phone, his camera lense blocked 1 lane off, should imagine the pic will be suberb, I didn't even know he had a camera at 1st...

 

You could say the same about 99% of cossie owners.

A Cossie on Comp Mo's.... WOoooooOOOOoooo

 

you took that with a phone? what phone is it? id imagine most phones would take blurred pics at that speed.

 

exactly that mate.

either look the same, or someone tries to be different and fucks it up.

BUT in the VW scene there are LOTS of mega mega nice VWs with some imagination put in to them, not just the sterotype mods like this one.

 

Sorry, used my mates digi camera for the on the move pics... Its taken some good pics really. My 1st time using it, think its a 6mp camera... Can only get better with it...

 

Here you go mate, got his pm just now, he says "the guys in the cossie seemed sound"


Looks just as good a shot as the golf one

He said hes also got the proper size one which he will forward on soon

 

hey guys cheers to some of you for the comments, thought id drop by an say cheers for the pic an the cossie looked v v tidy.

An yes i know its rolling low on ronal turbos, I brought it with the wheels and sorted the coilovers this spring. Currently on the look out for a new set of wheels as i too think the turbos are way way over done in the dub scene. some of the other mods include smoked lights all round, smooth grill, de-wipered rear. It got brought as a run about not a show car (how things soon start to change) Future plans now include 1.8turbo in approx the 280bhp mark,new interior an a respray.
Most of you probs dont even care but jus a lil info to the few who do

 

Most people care chap, not just ford owners on here, we have BM's, jap, german you name it, infact theres probably more non ford cars than ford cars!

 

Wasnt Davey Taylor was it? Looks very familiar that does.

 

I care!! Nice car you got there mate and good luck with the turbo conversion!

 

I bought it standard about 3-4 years ago... then dropped it, added the wheels and grill etc... Never heard anything of it since it went, I hope he go the engine in it... was a mint shell

 

Ta for popping on mate... Pic looks great, I've told Stundies ( owner of the Cossie ) to get on here, he'll sort you the full size pic out of the Golf...

 

Glag you like the photo if he wants it any bigger drop me an email mikey.seddon@gmail.com

 

Nice one cheers

 

Awesome pic mate... Cheers

 

What size brakes are on the cossie

 

dub looks wikid but the cossie is fooking stunning!!

 

wouldnt mind having the golf repainted in something like imperial blue as i think it stands out alot more, altho my royal blue does look ace in the sun

 

Tidy car(s)

 

ditto

 

when u go 4 the engine mate give doug at mrc tuning a bell,top bloke .have a look at his site mrctuning.com

 

Thanks for the comments and pictures of my Cossie, glad you liked the pic of the dub, both myself and slammedorion thought it looked the nuts

Mikey7.. you have enmail mucker

 

Unfortunately standard size apart from EBC Red Stuff and grooved discs, not runnin huge power so no urgency to uprate them although I agree they do look small and maybe my next purchase should be a big brake conversion

 

It still looks like a real nice tidy car regardless of wether it's got "stereotype mods" or not, i agree that there are lots of really nice vw's around with original mods that make them stand out from the crowd but there's nothing wrong with tried and tested mods that you know are going to look good either is there??
Seriously, if you've got nothing positive to say then why bother replying??
