Default Gone German

Hi everyone,

After my Saxo VTR being written-off I decided to go German as they are better in every way.

Got my hands on a Bora 2000 which is in good condition for year.

The car is currently sitting on coilovers, remapped to 170 bhp and has RS4's wheels.

What does everyone think?

No he wasn't asian lol

I actually like the exhausts but the one on the right needs to be higher up.

Thinking of tinting back windows and getting Alphard alloys for it to start with.

Any other suggestions?

I wouldn't say it's "better in every way" as it's no where near as fun. And IMO driving should be fun.
