    Well i figured i would join up to see whats going on in the scene over in the uk.
    I am from the U.S. and own a 99.5 VW .:Retta (bora + .:R32 front end). I am still in the middle of the project and that's why it isn't all one color as of yet. Also, dont mind winter mode (lifted and all)

    Enjoy.







    I heard that with some getta swaps the motor tries to kill itself because it cant stand how it looks.

    I love seeing the American VAG cars from here in the UK, they just look a little bit different which is a nice change!

    No its just a bolt on mod. Very straight forward.

    And to the last poster, its vise versa here. we love seeing UK styled vehicles over here. In fact im in the middle of changing up a few things to achieve a more "euro" theme.
