B5 Wagon - New front lip
Posted: Thu Jun 23, 2011 12:24 pm
Right, best make a start of this..
Been on this forum a long time! Only just got round to start making a decent build thread. So be warned PICTURE HEAVY!
First purcahsed the tank in November 2010, decent price of £1400 with 6 months tax and mot. It also has 16 services stamps by VW so... WIN!
Picture with a friends bora when we brought it back, totally standard.
