Supercharged Cherry - New Car

[miamibluebaby]

Thought id start a progress thread on here as i have a few plans for the car,

Here is how i got it near standard apart from wheels and exhaust.



the exhaust was an Ashley Race system, in a word, LOUD! so decided to sell and get hold of a nice 2" pugsport, so i did.

At the same time the lad i got it off was selling a flocked dash so that was purchased had a bit of a faf fitting but looks great well worth it.

The paint work was looking a bit dull and pink so i took it to a mates for a a good clean clay and machine polish



Then ordered a set of S2 Rallye decals off a guy on RR, quality items! Fitted them straight away.

The clutch then decided to die, wich was nice so cracked on with replacing it myself, im not a mechanic but cracked on with the help of the guide on here was easy enough, wish i had fitted an uprated item now though!!

Then Managed to get hold of a set of morrettes and nimrods, sold the nimrods and got hold of a set of the much loved ProRace 1.2

and as it stands today.....

[Squeak_]

car is really nice mate but im pretty sure its a gti ?? as they didnt make an s2 rallye in red.

[Aly]

Looks nice mate but take the Rallye decals off, it just ruins the whole look of the car.

[jeffchiz]

As said they never made Rallyes in red so you will get the 'experts' going look at that GTI with Rallye decals on it.
I had always thought about it on my GTI and that's what stopped me.

Subtle things like this make a good cherry GTI, this was my old one:



Parked next to a real rallye,
I'm not having a dig although it looks like I am.
Just my opinion the rallye decals spoil the car.

[Rodney]

I'm happy with my VTS, But i do LOVE rallye's, great car bud

[shell-vt]

Its a gti,,,,,,,,,

as aly says buddy the s2 rallye never came in red,,,

[loudandproud205]

Ah see a proper anorak knows they did make an s2 rallye in red, yellow and black but wasnt sold directly in England.

In Cyprus for example you can have a RHD 16v rallye in red or yellow as well as the standard white and blue.

[shell-vt]

still this is a gti not a rallye think most of us who,s had pugs have done this grafix thing before or thort of it i know i have

[loudandproud205]

If I do come top own a cherry red s2 106 it will have rallye stickers on it, the half leather will be in the skip thou as its not needed in such a car

Besides why would you actually buy a rallye when it only have 8v's...........

ive had 2 gtis and never thought of it as they were the wrong colour and had sunroofs so it would be obvious its not a rallye

This looks to be a gti but the black door handles are odd on it everything else though fogs badges colour is gti

The door handles confuse me though

[LEE_VTR1]

if only this was a real rallye it would be acceptable.

but because it's a GTI I'm gunna deny it of it's coolness Lols!

looks nice though mate! needs lowering though aha
