branvan's 2001 GLS 2.0

[branvan]

2001 GLS
5 speed
2.0L
Leather(ette) heated seats

Mods (if you can call them that):
Macintosh Sticker on back window
Lovely paper flowers made by my friend for the vase

I would like to do some mods but I don't have a clear idea yet of what I want to do and the budget is pretty tight right now, too. Thinking hard about ragster stripes and Turbo S wheels, but going to have to save up for that!










40k last week!

Beautiful!

The detail shot of the Mac logo looks like an advertisement! Great shot!

Soooo I completely forgot that those pictures were linked here when I was cleaning out Photobucket the other day... hahaha! Hopefully these are the same ones I had before (and I need to take some new ones soon). Going to be taking the 'Dub to the beach in September so hopefully will get some cute photos of him with palm trees as his backdrop.

As long as I'm here, a couple of updates - someone took out my drivers side external mirror last friday night with a baseball bat, but luckily, due to breakaway mirrors, I'm only going to need to replace the glass and it's on the way. I'll take a before-and-after shot of that one since I'll be doing the replacement myself He's also going into the shop for a checkup on Tuesday because I've had a CEL for about a month and a strange loud rattle from the manifold area between gears ... Maybe something exhaust-related has come loose and the CEL is related? We'll see!

After many months of being dirty (aka DISGUSTING), he was finally cleaned up last weekend - and it only took me 3 hours. lol

I forgot to take any pictures until it was almost dark though, so this is the best I could get. This is where he's parked most nights, on the street in front of my building.

Your Bug is awesome. I was going to put the same decal on my back window because Gus has the Ipod adapter. I'm glad to see how it will look in real life.

Your not too far from me, only a couple of hours.

Love your NB.

It's been a long while since I've updated here!

First, and most importantly, this car is now PAID FOR!!!!!!!!! (as of this month)

Recent new pics below, most of these exterior shots were taken today. I used the Meguiar's clay bar and gold class wax a couple of days ago and was amazed with the results! I also did a nice cleaning under the hood but forgot to take pics of that. Boo, maybe next time!

Included a pic of the VW rubber floor mats as well that I purchased about a year ago and LOVE. We've also had a few "mile"-stones caught that I've added on.

Hope everyone is doing well out there!
