January 2008

On sale: Tuesday, 1 January 2008

We've got a roller-coaster collection this month! From a tweaked Audi TT that's a lesson in faster class, a 200bhp Mk1 Golf G60 that tears up the quarter mile in 13.0 seconds and a stunning Mk4 Polo that's had enough interior design to put the Relocation, Relocation team to shame. Not enough for you? Then how about a pictorial peek at what we've been up to throughout 2007, a gander at the second instalment of our Mk1 Golf 22mm master cylinder and servo upgrade and a sneaky snippet from the open day of a well known tuning business on the South Coast of our fine isle. Didn't make it to the Oxford Edition show? We'll show you what you missed. Wherever you are, whatever you're doing get along to your local shop on the first Friday of December because the Jan '08 issue is about to blow you away.


Odds on Favourite
Smooth and sexy, the G-Werks TT meets Planet Golf+

Is this Europe's best modified first-Gen TT? Satin-smooth skin, sensuous stance - heck, we think it just might be so...

Lunching on gourmet grub at Littlehampton's trendy seaside east coast cafe, patrons look on in delight at the gorgeous green G-Werks TT - wondering naively, no doubt, if a brochure on this new Audi 'concept' awaits at home...


Great Things, Small Packages
It's the Grounded Crew's little lupo with big impact

It's been a labour of love, but this stylish Lupo is firmly grounded for both work and play

How many of you really love your job? For most people, their job is merely an inconvenience that they have to go through in order to pay the bills. The luckier ones among us seemed to have combined a passion with a career. You know the types - the sadistic kid in your class who was always going to be a dentist.

Cage Fighter
Carb'd and caged Euro MK1 Caddy unleashed

It's hard not to get excited about a cool Mk1 Caddy with cage and Carbs. This Euro BAD BOY is one we are happy to unleash

There's something about the caddy that gives it an instant 'cool' pass among the modded Volkswagen community here and overseas, without doubt. It's probably because the model shares many components, especially its face, with the original Golf, so therefore its popularity is pretty much set in stone. Look around any show field and there'll be a Caddy to suit every taste - whether it's ratty, immaculately trimmed, or maybe even a swimming pool on wheels.


The Trueman Show
Love it? Loathe it? The Oxford Edition MK4 is in your face

A Mk4 that's traded hands numerous times now gets its own personal touch thanks to a hint of master class

Love them or loathe them, the Oxford Edition boys are here to stay. Their rise from the embers of a VW scene of days gone by has caused many a heated discussion, and more than the odd locked thread on certain Interweb forums.

GOLF+ SEPTEMBER 2008-08-12

The UK's Grounded Crew graces our hallowed cover once more with Jason Buckley's stunning 2.0L 16V Mk1 taking pride of place. The ride actually has its historical roots connected well back to GOLF+ in the day, so it was our pleasure to pay homage to on of the finer UK Mk1 to hit the scene this year. Top stuff Jason!

Also inside, we pay tribute to one of the great Mk2s of the modern Dub era - Simon Sweetland's gem of a car, not unfortunately parted put and 'moved on over to the other side'. With his next awesome project to come, be check out his beloved Mk2 in the meantime, one last time.
