Thanks brooneye
Mods so far are:
Full ASZ swap with 6 speed box and hybrid turbo, straight thru pipe
Pro sport coil overs, axle flip and poly bushes
MkIV GTI front brakes
I was thinking of a Touran front end swap but I’m growing to like the sleeper look of the commercial bumpers

Looks great. What size are the alloys?
I’ve got a 2008 Caddy and I’m trying to work out what size of wheels would suit.

They’re 18’s, similar to the VW scirocco style but I think these are copies.
The vans running pro sport coilovers and an axle flip but not completely slammed.
Hope this helps?

Many thanks; I’m not a fan of really big alloys and they look just right to me, so that’s really helpful.

Looks very similar to one I’ll be picking up soon hopefully!
The wheels really suit this

GregWalters thanks mate
The wheels are 18” turbine (copies) I think. I’ve picked up a set of 19” Luganos, I’ll put a picture up once they’re fitted.
Cheers

Nice!
How are the prosport coilovers?

I don’t find the Prosports too harsh, it’s been polybushed so it’s a firm setup anyway.
It will be interesting to see what difference it makes going down to a 35 profile tyre when I fit the 19’s

Made a massive difference when I fitted the Audi TT seats & Touran bases. The standard Caddy seats offered no support whatsoever, meaning I always felt as if I’d fall off the seat with any spirited cornering.
The replacements are from a mk2 TT, black leather with manual adjustment

Just about to change my seats over, how was the wiring?
