Postby nick217 » Sat Sep 22, 2012 11:26 pm

Thought it would be worth starting my thread about my mk5 swb.
Shes a X reg LEZ complaint with twin side doors.
Brought on a whim for £320 off eBay.
Chucked her in for an MOT and wasn't too bad (One patch of welding rear back box leaking and odds and sods)
Since the mot i have fitted a new drivers seat with twin arm rests.
Rev counter
"power up mod"
Blue led side light bulbs
Dixie horns
Blue led strip in the grill
Roof Rack
New stereo
Led recovery lights.
Fitted 195's to the rear.

Currently clocking in on 150,000 miles and still pulling 2 ton easy.
And returning 35ish mpg at 60mph


Yet to do is 8w caravan light above front seats.
Bull bar.
New arches
Repaint
New rear doors
New bumpers.
fit cb aerial for show :roll:
And weld chassis near the back bumper.

Pictures to follow.
