KW Automotive’s Modified VW Golf Mk.2

KW Automotive‘s modified VW Golf Mk.2

This is one of those cars that looks like it hasn’t had much done to it. In a way typical of the VW scene, the tuning has been carried out with a ‘less-is-more’ philosophy. But one thing makes this Golf stand out from the sea of sorted Mk.2 Golfs in the UK. That key feature is the wheels.

The 8×17-inch OZ Racing Ultraleggera Crystals give the car an almost 1990s Brit-look. And you know what? We celebrate this. In a world of small and wide wheels, the OZ rolling stock stands out in a very positive way.

With a tidy Mk.2 Golf becoming a pretty rare sight, the interior of this example has thankfully been left almost stock. This adds to the classic look and kind of draws you in, snapper Chris Wallbank spotted this. The car was tucked behind a 997 Porsche GT3RS and the angriest looking R35 GTR you ever did see. Despite being hidden behind £160k’s worth of metal, Wallbank insisted that we pull the car out of the garage and get shooting.Once it was out in the sunshine it looked the absolute nuts! Pretty much everyone likes a clean M.k2 and this one is up there with the best.
