Hi all,
A few of you know me already as I’ve been on the forum for a few years now but decided it’s finally time to write up my own ‘casual’ build thread. I know you lot enjoy a pic or two so there's plenty here...
By way of introduction I’ve always been a petrol head. My first ‘real’ hot hatch was a Peugeot 205 1.9 GTi finished in rare Miami Blue bought for £2,000 near Fleet.
It was a K reg with PAS in standard guise but that didn’t last long. I soon lowered it, got some 16s, bodykitted by Pug Performance and fitted some ultra rare full leathers from a 309 GTi Goodwood.
After a couple of years I then had my heart set on buying a 306 GTi-6. I remember seeing one on Moonstone Blue and ringing the guy but it had already sold – devastated. Then, my attention suddenly turned to Audi TTs! I saw a 225 in Denim Blue with matching blue interior and thought yeah why not. Got finance for £10k and took the plunge.
In the end only had it for about 7 months then decided to offload because the fuel consumption & impracticality was p*ssing me off.
Saw this beautiful S3 (8L) in my favourite colour Kingfisher Blue down in Poole so went down to view & have a test drive. Snapped it off his hands for £9,500.
It was stock for about a week. I got a Revo remap, spacers, lowered on H&Rs, full black Recaro leather, and sourced some Audi TT S-Line alloys which I had refurbed in Black Chrome.
It looked the dogs dangleys I hope you agree (nice plate too
