I bought the car in September for a decent price £1700 (: with 92k on the clock. She's a 2000 2.0 HDi DTurbo!
Here's how she was when I got her home:

My 'i' fell off I swear I put it somewhere safe while the car was stored before my insurance ran out on another... But it was never found again! So I had to buy a new badge from Pug (:

Looks like someone had an accident with an open garage door or something? As there's also scratches in my rear screen!

Amazing what a touch up pen can do!

Bought a SP bonnet vent off eBay for £35, fitted that after wrestling with the 'mushroom' clips for about an hour!

Then in the first week of December, the boyf & I set about installing my Crystals, Zunsport lower grille & upper grille. What a hassle in temperatures of minus 5

Stupid bumper screws. Come. Out. Oh wait turns out the rails that are supposed to hold you in place are broken so you're twisting & you're rusty. TA!

Finally! This is the next day after my dad gave it some brute force overnight!

Slowly back together...

We were then so cold and lacking any moveable fingers, that I forgot to take any more pics until a week after when I finally cleaned her! So this is her so far.

Pretty proud tbh.
Since then I've also installed SMD LED sidelights & chrome indicator bulbs... As well as a whole new ECU & BSI Don't even mention that!
The inside is just as standard as when it came out of the factory... I think!
Next on the list are:
1) Colour coding
2) Either phase 2 bootstrip, or a colour coded phase 1
3) New alloys (very far in the future)
4) GTi gear knob/handbrake/door handles
