no comparison mate. i can drive this one round all day at a good speed and not even tax the engine. but then if i do need a bit of extra kick, there is.
for a 1.4 its suprisingly quick. I got a green filter to go in the raceland, but i cant get to it at the moment, dont even know what filter is in there!
im loving it though!

Yeh it's nice to be able to accelerate in a gear that isn't second!
Not much difference between the 1.4 and vtr tbh.
Looks awesome too, really like the morettes!

yeah im not sure about the rear at mo, i like the smoked jewels but it came with a set of Mk2 rears, so i can always pop them back on. looks cleaner with the standards i think.

oooh, plans, hmm not 100% sure on everything, but things to work towards at mo are:
-gti6 brake conversion/new 15" alloys (maybe VTS, maybe Speedline Comp 2's as pred suggested)
-Sort ICE out properly, second amp and sub etc
-New dials, poss plasma, poss Mk2 with LED's
not got any massive plans, but do need to fix the leak in the sunroof! got drenched INSIDE the car today!
yeah, photoshoot for sure

Brakes are a very good idea. Going to look at uprating mine as soon as i get the engine out of the way. Braking from anything above 70 just doesn't happen...
If you want some white faced Mk2 dials i might be able to get you some for the price of postage!
