Started out with a 1999 Vec B, 2.0L diesel. Good car, but too old, too many miles, given too little maintenance and was too expensive for younger me. Drove it from 200k till 250k miles.


Replaced the vec with a SEAT, 1.8 20V, the first car I really toyed around with. I still like the design of the car and did a ton of mods on it. Xenon conversion, 2-din radio, self-made comfort blinker, anti-roll bar/strutbars, leather steering wheel, short shifter, trunk lighting, footwell lighting, fully amplified stereo/subwoofer install, added heated seats, heated mirrors, front- & rear-cameras, illuminated gear stick, illuminated air vents, larger EBC braking discs, homecoming lights, and probably a whole bunch of things I forgot. Enjoyed driving it for 4 years, from 100k till 180k miles. Very reliable car but the fuel economy wasn't good at all, and I felt a few (expensive) issues coming up.



Thus came another diesel, and I'd been eyeing siggys for quite a while. Wasn't hard to find one at all, an I'm currently enjoying the process of getting this car exactly how I want it.
