Right so with my insurance renewal coming up and having the money to pay in full this time round I took the chance to get a VTS. Had my dad on the lookout for any vts' for sale near where he lives in Bedfordshire, he found this one, 91k, FSH, 11 months MOT, 3 Months Tax, £850 (Haggled down from £1k). I was on the lookout for a silver one which had already been lowered to save me the hassle so got extremely lucky. Transferred my tints over, had steelies on when I got it so changed over my S wheels from the R, also switched out the s interior for the r interior, I hate the look of the s interior, do plan on getting gti half leathers in soon though. Needed new rear discs and pads so i've had that done also. Got some pics which I took earlier on an iPhone so not the best quality:

- Bump strips gloss black
- Sort out the few dints
- Gti interior
- Uprate front brakes

Yeh there's a few dents here and there, front passenge side wing has a dent in although I have a spare panel which just needs fitting, passenger side door has a dent which looks like a football has been booted into it.

Haha, was actually a previous lady owner before me however it was from a guy who took it in part ex. Definetly replacing the wing and passenge door in the coming weeks hopefully, and probably replacing the rear VT panels as they always seem to bubble up just behind the door.

Cheers mate, recently had them refurbed so i'm being extra careful as not to curb them anywhere. As for the ride height I suppose coilovers aren't really necessary, the front is where i'd like it to be but im tempted to have the torsion bar lowered another inch as sometimes I just think the back sits a little high

Lol cheers bud, think smoked headlights are a must though along with gti interior. Not too sure on having bump strips done in gloss black though?
