Hello everybody! It's time to FINALLY update this topic! Not a great deal of work has been done,
but still there's a thing or two that needs to be shown to the world, starting with the mentioned
2009 205GTIDrivers.com Eurotrip.

It was a 10-day round-trip for 205GTIDrivers.com members from the UK, Holland and Poland,
meeting with people from Austria, Italy, Belgium, Germany, Slovenia and Croatia along the way.
The farthest point of the Eurotrip was in Croatia, on 4th and 5th of May (Pula and Rijeka region),
where I was present with the 205 Mi32.

The feeling of getting recognised, acknowledged and approached nearly everywhere I stopped,
getting loads of thumbs up and flashes on the road, taking people out for passenger rides and
especially finally meeting, chatting and "putting faces to names" of people I've "known" for many
years was, simply put, fabulous! The selection of 205s I had seen was also something to be admired.


Here are a few thumbnail teasers:

And a photo that means a lot to me - 205 Mi32, surrounded by 205GTIDrivers.com members from
several countries. A truly special moment for me! Thanks everybody, you've made it all worthwhile!

This is by far the most retarded thing ever built, and I completely love it! You take it to a completely new level :)

Lovely to see it still lives, it's been a while since last time I read about it :)

Like I said, there hasn't been a great deal of work done on the car over the past couple of years,
but here's a tasty little 2010 update :).


It was time to sort out the suspension on the 205 Mi32, which meant finally fitting GAZ GHA coilovers
with 300 lbs springs and eccentric top mounts, purchased via group buy on 205GTIDrivers.com,
replacing FK coilovers (front) and Koni Sport Adjustables (rear).

I'll let the photos do the talking - http://projects.205gtidrivers.com/205mi32-ph7?page=8" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;


See you soon with a 2011 update! :)

OK, we're in 2011 now. Wishbones needed replacing due to play in ball joints. However, we opted
to replace the ball joints, instead of complete wishbones.

Image

Usually referred to as impossible to do but there you go. Sadly, I don't have photos of completed
wishbones, but they look just like ordinary wishbones :).


Also, new wheels from the UK! Compomotive MO 7x17" ET15. One of my favourite wheels ever.

Image

They look great on the car and the car looks great with them on :).


We also tidied up the rear end with Phase 2 lights conversion and GTI 1.9 rear quarter panel badges.

Ready for a trip to Rijeka (CRO), to meet up with 205 enthusiasts from french-classics.de!

Looking good with the new rims, they are a very nice design, I agree.
