Right folks. Interesting note here. As a couple of folk on here already know i travelled hours today all the way to Orpington, London to fetch SaxoMark's Mk1 Mauritius VTR. My ex, who happens to still be a very good friend has bought it and it's basically a small project. The body's lovely on it. Better than mine infact. And the car overall feel's alot smoother to drive than mine. But it will need a new clutch soon by the feel of it and the twin VTS fan setup need's some sorting out. The heater's are also bollock's haha. So that will need sorting.

Other than that, it's a nice car and drove back from London fine

The sparco buckets and omp harnesses look amazing I got borde of my gti leathers so have started stipping mine aswell but i dont know wether to get fixed buckets or reclining ones? As i use the car alot i dont want to get fixed ones and find they are impractical for every day use

Roughly £600 all in pal.

If you go for the same method as i have you also need to do the custom bracket. Think i did a paint picture few page's back to show how it work's.

Make sure you do some research into what seat's people tend to find comfy. I went for the Sprint's as my mate has them in his GTI and i've spent a fair few hour's in them so had first hand experience with them and knew i liked them

Ive sat in my mates (IWlaurence) monaco S's and they seemed really good, can pick them up second hand quite easily aswell. I really like your sparcos but dont know if i can justify 600 all togeather when i only fitted the gti leather not long ago lol
