HEYYYYYY

Hey, names Stu I’m 18 and live near Newcastle. Aint got a track motor but I got the link to this site from another forum I use and I love everything to do with cars well anything with an engine ha . I have a 2000 mk2 punto sporting and a 1990 mk2 golf 1.3 woop. Possibly be parting with the punto soon as I’m only young and moneys tight but my golf is off the road at the mo and I’m gradually doing it up as a nice cheep retro daily. Would rely like a track car at some point and I think a cinq sporting would be one of my first choices (I miss my old one) well thats me

hello there...

Hi Stu ,

Thanks for poping over and taking a look like marty says you don't need a track car but you never know whats round the corner???

I could sell you a Cento... but iam far to much in love with it to do that ,

Edit: that sure is a fresh looking Golf

Cheers Scuderia

Most likely will get sum haha. well my plans for the golf is get it looking nice and run it like that for a few years and then get another car as a daily driver take the golf off the road and do something with that not necessarily for the track but my first thoughts were by a wrecked mk3 16v gti or vr6 then do a complete running gear and engine swap so it will be wide track and seriously quick but still looking retro and like a 1.3 it’s a dream a moment but hopefully something like that will eventfully happen as I see myself keeping my golf for a long time

yea i dont blame you mate, insurance costs are sky high when your young you tell them you have any modifications.... and they just hear "$$$$chu-ching$$$$"
