i wasn't overly keen on the optional 19s (adelaide) , but it was a prebuilt car with a date 3 weeks away rather than a 6 month factory order, I'm sure they will grow on me, there is possibility of a second set of 18s with semi slicks for trackdays

Took delivery earlier this month of this new mk8 Clubsport, first impressions are good, infotainment system takes a bit of getting used to! ze golf back ze golf front

its definitely different, in an ideal world i would have an electric column with the feel of a hydraulic one. sometimes if you are trying to park and turning quickly, you fight it, but its a minor inconvenience to be honest, still worth it for the extra space in the engine bay and fewer fluids...

Phase 1 project complete

so, engine is in, EPAS is fitted and rack has been looped to itself, Gave the PH1 a clean at the weekend and fitted my 888 tyres in readiness for Snetterton in april. happy with how it looks now and drives very well. enjoying it!

Great timing!! Got the engine timed up today with help from Alex ex Mark fish motorsport mechanic. Couldn’t of done it without him, got it all bang on so I have no doubt that it will run Sweet. Also fitted the cup alternator brackets, should be on track to fit the engine next weekend

we are in partnership with Everrati at work, we have had their cars down in our showroom for photoshoots etc, great work, love the Gulf coloured Porsche!

great build, and gone to great lengths to make it perform better (y)

Engine collected this afternoon from Bristol, no problem for the mighty Polo ! Got a new belt, water pump and dephaser included, to fit before I swap the engines over and I’ll give it a good clean and coat of paint.
