Default My MK5 RS2000(update, with new wheels)

I've had this about a month now, and i love it to bits, handles like a go-kart

Just thought i'd put a few pics up as it's off to the garage for some body work done. Nothing major just got some rust coming through in the usual places. There's some welding to be done on the underside aswell inner and outter sills.



Interior is in fairly mint condition

Got these wheels to go on it once it's all done


I've also got a WRC front grille to go on and a Laguna front splitter.

No engine mods except K&N panel filter(thinking of Focus RS Transplant not for a while though).

I've gone more down the lines of handling with AVO adjustable shocks and 35mm drop AVO springs, Powerflex bushes throughout, Sparco front and rear strut braces. Goodridge flexi brake hoses, Escort Cossie barke conversion is in the pipeline.

Let my know what you think and i'll get some proper pics up once it's all done, hopefully by the 2nd of April for the rolling road day in Ipswich

Thanks for the comments guys
I put it on the rollers today, it made 150.3BHP and 146 ft-lbf not bad for a near standard engine(k&n panel filter and de-cat pipe) with nearly 100k on the clock.
