My new dog mobile...
 

As people have seen Ive been after a decent hatch for some time. Then I got the offer of a Red Mk1 hatch, tbh i didnt really want a Mk1 but after I saw it I wanted it :D This was previously Sam's (ZS) on here and he only had it a couple of months, not going to do much really just detail the hell out of it and do a few OE mods :)

So far Ive lowered it a bit more, added HID's and wind deflectors :)

Why is it with red mk1's on black wheels? I usually can't stand hatches, but I really really want that one. And Taphouse's. Come to think of it, same car?

nope different i think :)

Looks a good swap, hope the dog appreciates it!!!

YES! Do you get much rubbing on the front arches?

good looking motor. ive not seen many red ones so it makes a nice change.

Nice ....

Looks familiar ;)

Is it a 1.6 ?

+0.9 ;)

I figured ... just messin' ............ Wasn't sure if was something extra special like a VAG lump or supercharged so being a bit cheeky.

Just a plain old, low to the ground, super stopper, V6 then ....

With Janspeed Manifolds, Sports Cat, Stainless mid and back box, ITG Induction, Gaz Golds, Brembo's, Catch tank....etc etc ;)

Sorry if I'm giving away all your secrets luke ;) lol

Car looks great :) and the window deflectors really suit it!

preferred your Mk2 but thats probably to be expected :)

At least it has come back 'home' ;)

Couple of updates today, installed the following.

> TF wheel
> Passenger airbag
> New badges
> Head Unit
> Good clay and polish

Think thats it :)

The mk 1 just suits that raw racy look more than the mk2. And those wheels are spot on.

Car looks great, do like the how low it is.

This is scary! We have car twins! All I've ever wanted was pro race 2.1's but could never find them in the right offset to run that low! I am one very jealous man!

Gotta love a mk1 red hatch on black rims!! :-)

Hope you have a good set of locking wheel nuts Luke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

Cracking stuff like and least the hound cAn travel on style haha:)

Loving the TF wheel conversion again, definately somthing I'm looking at doing in the near future. Is this the same wheel from the MkII or do you just have a never ending supply of TF wheels and boss's ready to go in an emergency? ;)

Few updates on this. Ive been fairly skint due to loads going wrong with the house :( long story, but Ive managed to get together some bargains from the scrappy or ebay. Since the last time.

> Monogram TF wheel
> New wheels & Tyres
> LCR Splitter
> New badges
> New Headunit
> New passenger airbag
> A dam good detail :)
> Personal Plate back on
> JDM rear tow hook

What you think?
