Oh really, got a build thread anywhere? Just think long term dude, that's what I'm trying to do. Got to get worse to get a whole lot better.

Just got to take the steering wheel off when ever I leave it, mk1's are not renound for there security!!

Yeah always the best way mate. I thought mine would of been all ready by easter to be honest, but we found a couple problems here and there and decided to just go for it.

Yeah the wheels are going to be my fave thing about this one for sure.

Nice job on the S4 Chris. Is that at Volkscraft? I think its his right? I've been thinking of a snap off boss and getting a momo wheel. Would make someone think twice before taking it :lol:

great idea with the removeable steering wheel. My mate has put one on his Honda, as his last one was stolen. priceless piece of kit in his eyes.
Nice job on the Audi! looks lovely!

Thanks Verity. Just need to get into the habit of taking it off all the time. Would it be too far to take it with me round town when i park up...?! :?

Do it! I would walk around with mine. I have been pondering for a long time but yes after seeing that Mk II stolen it does make you think. I bet thats in pieces in another country now :(

Snap off steering wheel is only thing that'll stop them thinking it

I'd carry it round everywhere I went, ppl will think your mad but it's either that or come back to no car :-(
