Probably not to everyone’s taste but I like it :) took me a few months only had drop links advised on the mot , also I re bushed every arm the gearbox that went in I had rebuilt the inside is stripped out I had it on the road for 6 months got fed up of the piston slap so that’s on the agenda :)
|
Nice work! Come a long way and lots of effort gone into it :ok:
|
Thanks it was an absolute shed when I bought it and apart from the gearbox drove great but the piston slap had to go so yeah that’s another thread I’ll have to do not that it’s anything special
|
Good effort being brave enough to save it - looked a right state when you started and many wouldn't have bothered!
I like the grey too :ok: |
Yeah it alright I guess was a bit of a state lol how a car looks don’t bother me lol as long as it’s one colour lol its all about how the car performs and it’s Audi’s nardo grey the colour :-D I wasn’t too sure on it but it’s growing on me
|
Grey seems really popular on a lot of new cars, Ford, Audi, VW and Seat seem to be doing them on their performance ranges. Always good to see another classic saved as well.
|
Thanks for the kind words guys it’s not the best lol but it’s people like you that keep everyone going :drive:

Hi Elliott,
Nardo grey is a winner for me :ok: And beauty is in the eye of the beholder.. everyone on this site has there opinions about what is nice and what isn’t - but you will never find anyone tell you what you have done is not right. We are all a supportive group, with very different views on how to modify, but with a common passion for scoobs, modifying, and cars in general :ok: |

I love bardo grey I’m a bit of a vw man but I have definitely found a massive love for my scooby , Yeah some would say I go a bit ott with the modifying you should see my daily lol fed up of keeping the bugger clean

:10:
Lovely... |
Very nice, like the colour of your scoob and the vw is :10:
Can I ask where the car was painted please, always interested in peep's experiences :ok: Cheers, Steve |
I painted it in a freinds garage , just cleaned up a section of the garage put some boards up to stop the dust and cracked on I’ve painted in some shocking places and always come out with a top quality finish , I honestly don’t know how people in proper paint shops have trouble lol must be by painting skills 😝
