MY VR... THE STORY SO FAR

Not really got any recent pics but heres some from a few months ago

looking good mate i like the blue interior n the blue wheels works well

Just found the original pics from ebay when i 1st got the car bk in august 2006, so may aswell start at the beginning of my journey of vr6 ownership. i already had 2 or 3 mks before i picked up the vr so had a few goodies waiting to go on before i actually had the car.
She was a bit of a shed but for £1300 with 121,000 what do u expect!





urgh horrible blue cloth interior! lucily i already had some black leather to go in



Heres one when i 1st got her home

Thanks Mate, The wheels were already blue when i got them and i wasnt to sure about them at 1st especially as i only had black leather aswell and i always liked the colour concept interior so when mine came up at a bargain price i had to have it! Also the recaros are so much more comfortable than the crappy standard seats

Always good to see this noisy car

gotta love a good VR!!!- this is an awesome car luke! love it

nice car man, cant wait to see it in the flesh at gti international

i do like this car alot im loving the wheels

Thanks for all the comments guys.

heres a few pics ive found once i fitted all my bits i had waiting to go on before i got there car.
Fitted the leather, Changed the grille, fitted 17" audi tt alloys, Mk4 style headlights, Crystal fogs, indicators and side repeaters, Clear rear lights and got the arces rolled and the exhaust done at R-tec in st albans.

Always liked your car mate sweeet couler isit satin silver?? i think, reading the spec make me like it more, the tailgate is class.

In feb 2007 it was finally time to get the car booked into the bodyshop for some badly needed colour coding. I had the side skirts, arches and door strips painted along with the wing mirrrors washer jets and de locked door handles while it was there i also had my smoothed rear bumper and tailgate painted and fitted an rs style front bumper.
Also while it was with the bodyshop i had my private reg transferred over.








I already had the smoothed tailgate and smoothed rear bumper as they used to be on my old 1.4 mk3 but i had the bodyshop plastic weld in a mk4 golf number plate recess because before the number plate was just stuck on the bumper.

It stayed like this for a while with the exception of the front bumper as that only lasted a few months before i got annoyed with the rubbish fit and i was never really to keen on it in the 1st place really.

the porsche wheels looked really nice the other night mate...............are they staying on ??

i loooooove this VR i think its coz it's silver it makes it look UBER PHAT!!!

No the porsche wheels were only fitted temporarily while i had the others refurbed so wont be staying on prob just keep em for winter wheels. Im not 2 sure about them on my mk3 either but they are growing on me a bit but i think i prefer a bit of poke instead of tuck.

Cheers dan, I think silver is the best colour on a mk3 that was really my only 2 major points when looking for a vr it had to be silver and had to be 3dr.
