Well, I'm back!!

[Nobber]

Morning All!

Some of you may know me, most of you probably don't! So if so, here's a bit of history:

First I had this:

Then I got this:

Then we took a slight detour and got this as a daily:

and this as the weekend toy:

But now.....we are back in the family and I picked up this yesterday:

So far it's good to be back and I'm loving it. Updates will follow as mods have been in storage for a good few months now!

Sorry for the slightly self indulgent thread but it feels good to be home!

Cheers

Nobber

Thanks mate! Can't wait to get started on modding the K1 although progress will be slow (ish) as i've just been made redundant but start my own business tomorrow!

nice selection of cars you have had mate. k1 looks great!

Cheers buddy. I'm a big Seat fan in fairness, infact I've not had a non VAG car for the past 11 years!!

 

[F2 Stu]

Ello Sir, Welcome back!

 

[Nobber]

Cheers Buddy!! How's things? Long time no speak! Last time I saw you, was at the Mouse's track event at the Haynes motor museum. You had that blue Mk2 beeza rocket!

The cordy looks pleasant mate, whats the spec?

Always a pleasure to welcome another K1 owner on the site. Just a remap will bring her alive

 

[Fl@pper]

Ow do

 

[HotHatchSteve]

Looks a nice example Of a K1 that does. I think white with black gloss wheels is one of the best colour options at the moment.
I hope you managed to get a good deal, I heard white cupras are fetching a premium at the moment.
I'm on my first VAG car and I am well happy so I can see why you have stuck with VAG for the last 11 years.
When do you pick it up ?

Yeh I had a map on the Golf, the Leon and the Raudi. All 3 cars responded really well to them, the Raudi was transformed with it.

Ow do

Oi Oi buddy!! Nice to see the Old School crew are still around!

I picked it up Yesterday from a Pug dealer in Stourbridge. I got a pretty good deal on it really I thought. Paid 17k for it, 9k trade in for the Raudi and 8k cash.

It's an 08 Plate with 5k on the clock.
Bluetooth
Cruise Control
Electric mirrors
Aux in.

Not sure what was optional and what was std really...but figured the bluetooth and cruise were certainly optional extras.

Thanks for the props mate.

Good selction of motors there mate glad to see you made the right decision coming back.

Yeah not too bad mate, God those haynes events were along time ago! Fairly nippy for a 1.4 wasn't it sold it to a friend upon getting the cordy and he wrote it off in an accident

Spec of Cordy is stripped out & caged track with the usual stuff, powered by a tempremental 2.0 16v on throttlebodies - its a bit on the loud side

I knew it was the right choice as soon as I got in it! Everything just seemed right! Was a long time coming though, I've been wanting one since January!

Cordy sounds like it'll go well! You use it daily?!?

That K1 looks beautiful mate Welcome back.
Although I've always had a soft spot for the Golf GTI's aswell

[Carr20vt]

Welcome back Matey.

You spoke about getting the K1 a while back when you were looking to buy a milly dp for it .

Similar route to the MK2 here via the bezza and LCR

Cruise was not optional btw. BT, Xenons, Ipod and Conv pack were.
