The new steed.

For financial reasons, it was my sensible head that said I had to get rid of the Golf. It will be sorely missed, but with the furthering of my education and other such commitments, it was difficult to justify having an expensive car and no money.

However, the joys of being a car enthusiast is you always know how to put a spin on things. So, a couple of weeks ago I picked this up from Devon. In the words of Clarkson "You cannot have more fun for the money".

This particular one is a Japanese Import "RS" Model. So as well as avoiding rust, it comes with a Limited Slip Differential, 6 Speed Gearbox, 7.5k Rev limit and a 145bhp 1.8 engine. The Factory fitted Bilstein Shocks werent up to scratch though, nor were the standard wheels. So thanks to the guys at Driftworks it now has some HSD "DualTech" coilovers. Oh, and the wheels factory fitted BBS to the E30 3 Series BMW.
