Nice GTi - minty! Like the XS too though, especially the black bonnet. Needs to be matt or satin though!

cheers my man!! yeah the Gti just had a complete engine rebuild every thing you could of think of been relaced,renewed or re conditioned!! cost 950 but well worth it goes like a dream now!!
yeah that wee butey Xs was bought for 190 of someone old and stupid with no mot! great condition tho!
its running currently 1.9 8v xuj5 (from Gti)with a single garret small boost turbo running approx in the Bx but how ever......... in mine it has custom exhuast(no cat gives better performance),uprated intercooler,cold air feed,blow of valve,in car boost,KnN,16v injectors, this was dyno'ed at 177.9bhp.this is an Xs shell which weights around 775kg Bhp/ton approx 225 i think.not sure!
it runs on a 1.6Gti205 gear box with close ratios this gives fugures off.....
0-62mph = 5.4secs
0-100mph = approx 16.2/5secs (3secs faster than 182trophy)
top speed limited by box is 132mph gets there very fast tho!
what type of pugs you got mate 104zs are very,very,very cool! respect.

Cheers!
I like it. There are only 2 in CPUK and only 3 currently on hte UK roads so it's quite rare. Goes well with all the mods though the gearbox is a bit limiting as is the lack of an LSD. Annoys the 205 GTi track boys as it handles better than a 205 what with having proper independant rear suspension.
I love it and will never sell it. One day it will get the ground up rebuild it deserves complete with wide arch group B kit, wide track and rear discs. Have just found picture of a mid engined one which has become the long term dream.
Where in the UK are you. We are running a rolling road day in a few weeks but it's probably miles from you.
