Beaus' 95 Mk3

[beausuf]

Ahoy there,

This is my first golf (volkswagen as well actually) so this is new territory for me. I picked it up just the other day for what I thought was a good deal from a desperate seller - $1800 with fresh rego & 150xxx km on the clock. Overall pretty neat bar a few odd small dings.

It had been sitting for a few months from the previous owner so I gave it a good scrub today and it came up alright.



Thanks,
Beau

Welcome the CL's are a mighty fine Mk3.

Thanks guys, I'm pretty happy with it!

The bumpers have seen better days paint wise so will be buffing back what I can but the tops of the bumpers are looking a little too far gone so I was thinking of painting the top section black like the GTI? bumpers. I'm hopefully the middle portion can be brought back, I really can't be bothered painting them lol (I'm a trade qualified spraypainter). I have 2 days off this week coming so I'll be buffing the whole car and pulling off some grandad gear like the headlight covers, roof racks and tow bar. I should probably service it befor winter kicks in properly. Other things on the list though...

- Coilovers - hooray for cheap UK coils
- Whitewalls (already in the post) also on the hunt for some VW smoothie hub caps
- Blacken out wheel arches
- Basic audio setup, I have a spare 12" sub and amp kicking around.
- Central locking & alarm kit
- Tint... maybe

I might eventually slap some rims on it, see how we go. Will post pictures as I get on.

Thanks!
Beau

this a very unusual comment coming from me but i really wouldn't go over the top with it. coils and nice wheels and i'd leave it at that...

nice buy though mate, love the 3dr's..

just don't do anything too permanent to the car, these 3 doors need to be cherished as they're starting to become hard to come by.
like my neighbour who welded his roofracks onto his 3 door mk3

Oddly enough, the ad was linked on these forums before.
3 door mk3 in Perth

so, are those roof racks permanently mounted?
