They sure didn't waste anytime in dropping this beauty to the floor. The car has been dropped using airbags and does it flawlessly with Rotiform BLQ wheels in 8.5×19-inch which are wrapped in 215/35×19 rubber. -Jeroen Willemsen Spotted on G-Werks
This second installment covers the outside grounds of the VW-Speed Summer Show. In the opening picture you see the most favorite wheel amongst the show goers. The community is really laidback and it seemed that for most of the people that attended it was more like a get together with ‘old' and new friends. This Passat with Audi rims was right
I used to have a good fashion designer pal, who once told me of a meeting he had had with Creative Director of a well known German urbanwear fashion line. The Creative Director said something quite interesting in their meeting: "Fashion is Communication. At every moment, the clothing you wear is telling everyone around you what kind of person you
As you saw during Kevve's post yesterday, the Worthersee event is a huge one among the VW and Audi fans in Europe. In fact, it's big enough that Volkswagen itself has decided to display a pair of new concept cars at the event - the Golf GTI and Polo "Wörthersee '09" editions. It's quite a good idea really. What better
Back in the early 2000's when I was spending all my free time cruising around in a Camaro Z28 or 5.0 Mustang , I had a few buddies that were into watercooled Volkswagens. Although I didn't know a whole lot about these exotic German imports, I still remember being impressed by the cars my friends would show me in magazines like Performance VW
While browsing the NWP4LIFE forums I came across this gem. Because it was found in a ‘post your slammed ride' topic I do not have info on the car except the obvious, that it's a MK2 Golf probably a GTi 16v. Does anybody have any more info on the car? -Jeroen Willemsen
There was an impressive turn-out for the GTI Spring Festival, the first big VW UK event of 2009 - and also my first posting for Speedhunters. Even the British weather (which threw hail down the day before) smiled on us, with the rain holding off and the odd ray of sun burning through the clouds. Warmer than Japan, for sure... Santa Pod was crammed with
Volkswagen UK recently published a press release highlighting the 33 year of Golf GTi history, which makes interesting reading. I thought this could form the basis of our latest Retrospective piece, on the original hot hatch. Golf GTi Mk1 1977-1984. If you are old enough, cast your mind back to 1975! The Giorgetto Giugiaro designed Golf GTi is launched
The 21st GTi International took place last weekend in central England. As usual, the weather wasn't great, but we have a great gallery of photos, thanks to Mark Forbes (Zboyd!), one of the admins' of SEATCupra.net. Its no surprise to hear that the Golf GTi is the most popular car at the event, such as this 24 year old stock Mk1 with period Pirelli
GTi International, one of the bigger VW events takes place this weekend in the UK, so I thought I'd show off this Golf (or Rabbit !) Mk1 that was recently on the cover of 'The Golf' magazine. I'm not completely sold on the finish of the wheels, but that takes nothing away from the impressive job by its owner, Paul Scott. You need to
