This is my , for now, standard second bora.Having owned a V5 for a while i soon realised that i should have had the all singing and dancing V6 with 4wheel drive.I intend to fit my old Breyton Avalanche(Projektzwo P2's)18 inch alloys in the better weather along with some coilovers.............But for now a few pics as she is as nature intended.

This is a very rare example with grey leather Recaro heated seats(i don't know of any one ever having this option in grey......do you know different)

The V6 is the 24v model and will be coming in for a bit of tuning as funds permit.Had thought about supercharging but it doesn't really need more power as the power it has can be used almost anytime in most conditions............grip is awesome.

My first proper modification is the R32 pedals...........the start of the aluminium interior upgrade

My girlfriend was so impressed with the car that she went out and bought herself a TDI 130 highline.....with heated leather,parking sensors,cruise etc

Finally got round to fitting the 18s.......what do you think?

Perhaps a little lower..........maybe 20mm or so would be about right???????? opinions???

Here are a couple of more recent arty pics.
Car now has a stubby aerial and an R32 steering wheel and all alloy trim including triggers.

Car is now lowered on KW coilovers and running a Milltek exhaust.

Engine has a bit of bling though this photo is an early one.Still awaiting the arrival of ABD LAN pipe. I have the big bore pipe and strut caps now but want to fit all in one go. The car is booked in for a remap at Revo and am hoping to break the 240 hp figure.

My previously mentioned girlfriend is now my wife and a lot has been done to her car too.

Hers is lowered on Weitec coilovers with gallardo rep 18s.It also has GLi spec lights the same as mine and she has angel eye lightsat the front with a HID conversion. Her car has been tinted since this one was taken. She's also been chipped by Revo
