Welcome to the Club

SNAP

Same as me, Phase 1 for the Track, not spending too much, as came with a few modded bits as strut brace, coilovers, induction etc
Tart it up, and let it fly
I enjoy driving it more than my new 300BHP Mk 7 VW R ..... LOL

To answer OP Ally question (Cant seem to edit my post- sometimes can, sometimes cant) new tyres all round for me is a must so not old aged compound tyres, altho ive gone for budget TOYO Proxes atm, for now
Get barkes sorted, braided lines, upgraded pads, maybe discs, and upgraded 5.1 fluid
New air filter, decent fuel (V-Power)
Longer term, full harness n decent seats n roll cage and bore out throttle body i reckon
See how it goes round track next year, then go a bit further, but for me, not spedning loads

Oh..and not to everyones taste... decals..decals...decals. Bonnet sides and roof- BLUE ;-)

Your thread- if you want me to remove my photo let me know
