Ive got some motivation back, have recently changed (fixed) a few things since I was last out, should be all good to do some hillclimlbs & sprints this year.

have been watching this car on ebay for the past couple of weeks . It was first listed with a "buy it now" price of $6500 and went to auction with 9 bidders (not myself) and reached $6250 .I thought it was sold until it reappeared / relisted again .
Has had heaps of work done to it , and looks like it would make a good track car .
Dont know why it was relisted , maybe the owner is a time waster and just fishing ?

It looks very similar to that greena dn yellow one that was built 5 to 10 years ago as a super sedan. Is it that car, stripped?

Didnt this one have a spot in "australian vw performance center" adverts in vw magazines
