Hi my names Tom and im from Keighley West Yorkshire, im a sparkie by trade and a caddy was 1st choice in what i wanted, i bought it in Dec 11 with the idea i wouldnt get back into the modding game after my Vauxhall Corsa days where i spent way too much time money and effort!
here it is on collection only an SDi, still signwritten and in need of a few bits doiing too it but it was a good price and im not too bad with a lump hammer and gaffer tape
Never let my customers down even when they dont turn up themselves!
It wasnt long before i thought id test fit a set of spare audi wheels kicking about, i liked them but i fancied something different.
then my mate decided too sell up and let me have these! deffinately wont be seeing any building sites mind theyve been powdercated in a one off graphite and candy red colour. Not one for a colour match when curbed :/
Been telling myself too kick on with the van ready for a few shows but it wasnt until i saw this at 'Dubs Int Dales' that i pulled my finger out, very nice chap and a fine example of a caddy i believe hes on here and won the show and shine although the latter may be incorrect!
So first thing monday morning i ordered coilovers from a good mate of mine at Motorsportworld. they are the v-maxx kit and i cant believe how nice it is too drive still even on the lowest setting.
cant beat a weekend working on the motors followed by a few beers with the lads!
as you can see ive rubbed down the rear bumper primered the mirrors and taken rubstrips off for painting also have a spare front im currently working on
as i currently type everything has been primer fillered ready too be rubbed down a final time
plans are side rail cover, rear spoiler, handles painting and maybe some camber ill be at VW Festival Leeds and Trax Silverstone and hopefully it will look a lot better than it currently does
more pics will be up soon enough and maybe a few of my award winning corsa if any are interested!
