;D well, I had a pile of flyers and some tape handy so I thought I'd stick one in the back window ;D

Here's the car as it is now (well, five minutes ago anyway...)



and here's the Lada:


My brother is getting parcels delivered all the time for it... A tran-x Type-9 straight cut gear kit arrived last week, a whole load of interesting looking exhaust bits arrived today, a substantially reworked cylinder head yesterday...

yeah, Pirelli P-Slots, they were standard fitment on the 'Campaign' Golfs like mine

The Lada is staying stock looking - it has to really to comply with Road Rally regulations. It's Porsche Guards Red and currently runs Opel Manta rims, although he's thinking of these for it:



Compomotive MO's - which I think would look great ;D


Budapest, summer 2003:

I reckon those compomotive rims would look PROPER cool on it!

Golf is looking good mate..... (as always)

DarrenW said:

Yay! ,.. will TRY and get proper stickers soon!,.. they just keep falling through!

[DarrenW]

It looks better in the flesh so to speak... And no-one can see it anyway, not til the car has an MOT at least!

I'm convincing my brother to bring the Lada to the RCS, reckon there'll be room on the stand for it? ;D

[Benmarina16v]

;D I'll see if Dave can get down for it and bring his! He also has a 2 litre Pinto engined Marina Coupe but thats another story!

Hah hah just spoke to my brother:

"Hey do you know someone called Dave that road rallies a Lada"
"Yeah, Dave Bromley, he's got a two litre pinto Marina Coupe"

;D ;D ;D

They know each other apparently... The modified Lada scene in the UK is a small one!

It'll be there then! Probably not with the monster engine though, he'll be saving it for a 3500 mile drive to Hungary and back a few weeks later!

That Lada is great!

The sticker in the Golf looks great, actually your Golf looks nice too, love that it's colour coordinated with the Lada! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D People walking past must think that you're obsessed with square red motors! ;D ;D ;D
