So I'm new to this site passed my test in July and just looking for some opinions and maybe give you some ideas.
Below is a picture of my car not long after I got it just cleaned up a bit. It is a late 2002 1.4 HDI 5 door with only 50,000 miles!
Since then I have passed my test and added:
-New Stereo
-Cheap Alloys
-A little Colour Coding
-Added a Bluetooth Parrot
Picture of new stereo and Parrot.
Picture of exterior (No Filter).
Again (With Filter).
If anyone has any ideas let me know thinking of knew speaker anyone got any ideas?

Welcome to 206info Darryn, a belated congrats on passing your test.
If you have a look through my project thread there are a few simple things I've done so far just to modernize the car a little more like like installing crystal clear headlights, GTI steering wheel & GTI speedo surround and few other things.
In terms of performance you could remap the car for a small but noticeable gain.

Thanks guys was thinking thinking about changing to the crystal lights as well as maybe changing taillights! Also I forgot to mention that after I upgraded the stereo the stalk on the steering wheel will not work with it and was wandering if it is a easy fix or not worth the hassle.
