I Thought i'll make a project thread as i'm bored 
Well i've had it just over 4 months now it use to be iain M's brothers car, At the moment the car is on 17inch s3 alloys and lowered 40mm on apex springs.




Well the plans for after x-mas is some coilovers to lower it as low as i can go and some nice euro style rims with a hiden exhaus system.

There 20v 1.8's.
Is that the NA version? Looks like it, tb piped straight to the airbox etc.
The turbo engine is properly tuneable.
Very nice car, ive always liked the "old" audi's, a3s/a4s/80s.
