Thanks Guys.

The portals does look better. Just need to see if its actually ok on tue trails now.

The Golf:






It needs some paint work with it standing in the sun at work for the past 13 years. Spots and indicator lenses still need to get replaced. Road damage on the dirty highway I use to go to work.

What year is it? IIRC, S.A., Brazil, and a few other countries produced the MK1&2 longer than Germany. I’ll trade you my MK4 Jetta.

They produced this till end 2009 over here. Called it the Citi Golf. This is a 1.6 2006 model. Its almost worth what I paid for it still because of how sought after this specific ‘VeloCiti’ model is for some reason. I’ll probably drive it till its dead.

Nice. I’d love to have that body style as well. Keep it til it dies then fix and go again.

Swopped the 540 16t out for a 550 12t over the weekend. Should have decent torque now. Will charge up a pack sometime to test it.

The trans had to be rotated too.
