Adi's mk3 golf GTI

As some may know last weekend I picked up this billy bargain of a mk3 GTI for myself so I could sign the mk2 GTD over to my missus. It was however missing quite a few bits, namely 3 arch trims, side skirts, speakers, speaker covers, badges, and it has 2 front wings the wrong colour. However it did come with loads of MOT, lowered 60mm, average mileage, early BBS VR6 wheels, and a rather sexy VR black leather interior. I didn't take any good pics of it as I got it so heres a few I took earlier since fitting side skirts (missing the usual strips), arch trims and GTI rear lights as it had non GTI ones on it.








All being well next week it'l have 2 new doors and 2 new wings (in the right colour) and I'l be swapping the suspension with the mk2 so it'l be a lot lower!

My first instinct was that you should rat it, but then looked at the pics and it seems pretty tidy apart from the white wing. It's also one of the few colours that makes a MK3 look decent (sorry to other MK3 owners! )

Look forward to seeing this one progress

No rat for this, I did that years ago. I just want to get it low and looking like a GTI should. I have a week off at the end of the month so I can get the mk3 serviced and tidy it up, and hopefully get the mk2 fixed so I can use that as well

dont suppose it is the rear doors you are replacing? if so dibs on the old ones!!

I'm replacing both passenger ones but I said I'd swap them with him so I don't end up with doors I can't get rid of and he'd still have the extra weight when he scraps the shell off his. I'm still after a driver's front one though as mine has bad laquer peel and rust.

Today the mk3 has hit new lows Swapped the coilovers off the mk2 today, however it is suffering from some serious arch to tyre contact, so the hacksaw shall come into play tomorrow

Loooks good dude. Any mega plans other than the GTI ness??

Do you live on notcton drive btw? I have family down there and it looks like that street.

New wheels, make it tidy, and go lower. And yes it is Nocton Drive
