Poverty spec '99 EK9


That's some attention to detail !

Undersealing the proper way as well, no point doing half a job.
 
I love them in the warm and summer.
I had to use the at once last month and they didn't inspire confidence,
Felt pretty greasy and like they needed some heat in them.
I don't drive the car over winter so any comment on that much mate, it's garaged Over winter :)
 
Nice car.

You've got a very loose use of the term poverty if you don't mind me saying.

i was planning on getting them but I was wondering about wet grip..

your car is such a minter :nice:
 
Poverty was referring to the fact it was low spec from factory,
No one paid for airbags, electric windows or abs :)
 
Lovely EK9! Mint as ever! Keen to see how this car evolves :)

Current plans are getting it back to like new with regards to bushes etc.
Anything that breaks will be upgraded for a better part.

I want a b18 for it, or k20 (but feel that ruins how original it is) but find it hard cause I know I won't find another b16b as perfect as this one internally and externally :((

Anyway, ill update as things happen or progress for you all :)
 
This may be for sale soon...
Still thinking it over, but fancy moving up in the car world to something a bit luxury.
Not 100% but considering. :)
 
Forget above post she's a keeper.
