So much win! You look just like my roof with the Downhill rig/BMX. Dream set-up once I finally sell my sedan for an avant. Modded Avant + Downhill Bike on roof= perfection.

That A1 GTI is ridiculously hot! I want to buy one so bad.

Wow. Car/pic/lighting/box/color/wheels=win.

[$lick]

Because... is there anything sexier?

[bblume]

^^^nope...nuthiin' sexier!

[rensho]

$lick, what tires are those? How was the driving and traction?

[$lick]

They are Dunlop SP Winter Sport M3. Driving this car in the snow is awesome! The tires handle superbly. One time I had an 80 mile drive back home around 7PM and the snow was coming down pretty hard. Everyone on the highway was driving like a blind old lady going like 40-50 mph.... not me. I was weaving around everyone no problem and when I had enough space in front of me I would cruise at normal speeds (80 mph) no problem. And taking her to empty parking lots is a blast. I feel like a rally driver

Here are a few more pics I took recently. Installed RS4 rear sway bar and RS4 grill (I plan on plasti dipping the grill trim black when I have chance), painted the headlight housings graphite gray, cc mod and plasti dipped the gray plate filler to black but left the chrome strips.

(yes, they are nighttime iphone pics... sorry)










Im meeting up with someone tomorrow to swap out these 18" OEM rims:


for these:



which I plan to have painted graphite. its so awesome to have a car thats so sexy but can still fit a full set of rims and tires and my son and his car seat. That why I drive an avant!

And when the time is right to put those OZ bad boys on, I will also have a set of neuspeed lowering springs and b5 lowering caps ready to go. I cant wait to see what she's going to look like

^Do you have your son in a Recaro Baby Seat? My son loves riding in his. Nice car by the way!

I would like to second the motion in supporting the dunlop wintersports....they are insane.. $lick's description of winter driving is spot on. Often you drive around in snow as if there was no snow...which sometimes can be frustrating when everyone around you is driving like a bunch of tools!

[muttwagon]

Nice mk1. Love the Canadian GTIs. Here's my GTI that I sold a couple months ago to get my Avant:
