My mk1 VTS- for sale, make me a offer.
Well bought it in march and its been a very good little car, it looked like this...
So far i've changed the grille back to an original mk1 as the mesh one was gay, fitted a standard steering wheel ( it had a horrid oval omp one on) Fully cleaned inside and out, full service including a k&n panel filter and cold air feed.
The biggest differency was having the wheels refurbished and powercoated white this week, im really happy with the results.
Next things to do are to tidy up some bits of bodywork, namely the front bumper.
Paint the calipers, not sure on coulor yet.
buy and fit 4-2-1 manifold.
upgrade the suspention.
lower strut brace.
look into fitting a piper 285 and ecu.
proberly more lol, i'll update as i go.

Yes at last, white rims really suit it man, and make a change from the silver and black/anthracite colour scheme

Just had a play with the camera settings in the street, not the best lighting tbh but the wheels look nice at night 
Thanks for the comments, still needs some work to make it how i would like.
