It's under 2 months till the London Motor Show 2018 at the ExCel in London, and we were reflecting on last years event at the Evolution centre in Battersea Park, and decided we needed to put together a quick video of our best bits of last years show. The LMS 2017 highlights video shows us enjoying ourselves as we explore the car show, we take a look at the new MG, David Brown Automotive and their remastered classic Mini and listen to the flooring of the Clive Sutton Mustang.

ABF Conversion Mk2 Golf Volkswagen

It's been sometime since our Mk2 Golf GTI has had a mention, well last week I recorded a short video explaining what the plan was with our Mk2 ABF conversion and how far we'd got. The video shows some footage of the car and explains what we've managed to do, and what we hope to start in the coming weeks.

We chose the ABF engine route as it's a strong engine with great specs and pretty much is identical in resemblance to the KR 16v, the only difference being a 1cm taller block.

Hope you enjoy the video and watch out for Part 2.
