Well, i sold my black vts and bought this white one 5weeks ago :D
I got it for a small sum of £1000, it came with 3 months tax and 6 months MOT. the only things wrong with it were:
> ABS lights on (needed new drivers side drive shaft as ABS ring had corroded and basically fallen apart, so the sensor wasent reading it lol) so easy fix
> Small scuff on the rear bumper
> Needed a passenger side front arch re-painting, due to a bad re-spray on it
Other than that its a minter, or atleast thats what i thought until i went to change the engine mount bushes and found a bit of a hole in the chassie leg, but thats getting sorted tomorrow :D
The car was completly standard when i bought it, and old lady had driven it about for 8/9years before her son bought it off her as a car to get to and from work. youngish lad, but sensible driver. so the car has never been ragged, which has taken a tole on the old gal, not very quick at all, i dont think anyways :/ lol
I took it down the track the other day and it was running about 16.52s down a quater mile in the WET, so no idea how that compares to other vts's.
Anyways, the mods ive done so far, all done by myself except the tinted windows :D:
> lowered 70mm rear, 60mm front on Apex - £40
> Limo black window tints - £30
> 306 gti-6 cyclones, were white, but went for anthracite :D - from old car
> White rocker covers - cost of paint
> White OMP strut brace - £30
> Piper manifold - Off old car
> Powerflow centre section and backbox - £50
> Painted The bump strips gloss black - cost of paint
> Smoked snake-eye rear lights - off old car
> Went for angel eyes, but didnt like them, so sold them and put standards back in, yet to smoke them though :D - £50, sold for £65 :P
> GTI leathers (hole intieriour and door cards for £60 ;))
As you can see, ive not spent alot on it, as i found most parts for cheap :P
Anyways enough chit chat, here are some pics (not in order :P)
