Hello 👋🏼

Thought I'd join up as I kinda made an impulsive purchase of a car I've always admired. This one came up local to me that had been pulled out of a garden where it had been stood for 4 years. It had an engine rebuild since been pulled out of the garden, new radiator, starter motor, belts etc. and a full MOT. The guy who did this ended up with different priorities and needed to get rid. That's when I got involved. Still got plenty to do but it's solid and it's got potential. Here to pick your brains. It's a 1991 b3 2.3 20v quattro. Cheers,
Andy

Cheers. Oooops forgot the pics. As I mentioned it needs work so but it's good enough base to get started.

Very nice, white suits it very well... Lots of potential ! Will you keep it standard or "tweak it " a bit ?

Unfortunately Paul I'm not the kind of person that can leave things alone. I want to drop the suspension, maybe 17" motorsport wheels, the interior is hanging/rotten so that needs replacing with either better condition seats, doorcards etc. Or maybe some bucket seats. I'm old enough to know better but for some reason refuse to 🙈

Well, you'r in the right place... for advice and parts... and encouragement !

This site might be useful to know what parts fit what cars, there are lots of parts which are interchangeable...

We're all mad as hatters on here so it sounds like you'll fit in well.
Welcome
Keep the pictures coming please.

Cheers guys 👍🏼

Got a couple of issues I need to resolve. First one being the broken lock parts in the doors but I've ordered a right click remote central locking kit to sort that but the other is what do you guys recommend as a covering for the orange on the back lights? My old corrado had all red lenses with green bulbs but thinking about tinting these 🤔

[simons2]

Welcome , nice pair , I'm in Derby where are you ?

[Greg_S]

Welcome to the forum. nice pair of cars too.

[david1980]

either us spec all red rears or the later s2 rear lights will work. Nice golf

[Andy-H]

Thanks guys. Simon, I'm north Derbyshire close to Buxton 👍🏼

I'm going to guess that the S2 lights will be quite expensive?

Also could do with a good contact for a stainless back box as this one is quite tired and full of water 😂😂

[anthonys2]

nice pair of motors. Before the S2 I had a Coupe Quattro 20v absolutely loved it
