It's not a Jetta but it's still a Dub!!!!!

Hey boys and girls. I thought it was about time I showed you my car. It's not a Jetta but it's still got a VW badge on it. Welcome my baby,'Minty'!!!!!!

The last pic is my favourite. Probably could've got some better ones but it was quite busy were I was and I was already getting strange looks like i was some sort of weirdo!!! She's only a 1.4 but the tightened throttle cable makes her feel that little bit nippier! She's a lot better than she was when we first got her, engines was hanging out of it! But once she was up and running (new engine) her potential started to shine through and we decided to keep her. Got a lot more plans for her, nowhere near finished but up to now she has:
Raceland coilovers dropping her about 50-60mm
15" borbets
Scorpion boxer DTM exhaust
Debadged grill
6n2 seats and carpet
Clear indicators and side repeaters
K&N induction kit

Hopefully get some more done soon, maybe drop her a little bit more too!!!!

Looking good Miss O......

Me and Popeye had so much fun in it doing J-turns, handbrake turns, racing it round the country roads and jumping the speed humps

A very rapid little motor.

Yeah i thought you did. Bit of a give away the flat spots on my tyres!!! No wonder my coilover won't budge, you two have fooked my suspension up. Either that or Popeye hadn't had his spinach!!!!    

That's a great looking Dub!

i'm sure i've seen this little dub before
ohhhhh yeahhhhh, on our drive.

lovvve it.
xxxxxxx

i just bought my missus one of those for christmas and i use it everyday cracking little cars them

Nice little motor. It still counts cause its a dub. Are those the wheels which were on jack? Are they on loan or do you just have matching, his and hers? Your very good to let them abuse your little car Olive, my wife would go mad if I treated her car like that.

spot the difference.

I love this car, it's my first VW. I'm so glad we decided to keep it. They're very nippy little cars but Popeye tightened the throttle cable without telling me!!! She's like a little rocket now, it's great!!

Well after hearing so much about it (VENTURBO!!!!) I decided to finally invest in some Maguiar's Clay Bar and, OMG, am I glad I did!!!!

As you may have already noticed, there seems to be something missing around the 'middle of the door' area. It kind of 'fell off' with a bit of persuasion from Popeye's hand, told him not to over-do it on the spinach!!!!

Looks so much better with them off tho, 1 down 3 more to do Popeye!!!!

Well after Popeye using some good old elbow grease, we've finally got the finished result and it would be fair to say I'm rather pleased!!!

Well said Mr V, my words exactly. I've been wanting them 2 'heaps' gone for weeks but now they've definately got to go. Make way for 'Jill'!!!!            

Oh and as for 'working him into the ground already', someones gotta wear the trousers in the house!!!!!
Only joking my sweet

Well, it's been a while since I updated everyone on Minty's progress.

Well nothing's really happened because, as you all know, we've been getting ready for the big day.

Well, as soon as the wedding's over, thats when the fun's going to start.

I've just been informed that the first new addition has just been bought for me, by my beloved Popeye, as my wedding present.

May I introduce my new black leather 'Recaro' interior!!!!
