Great write up Stephan! BTW, I won't be making SDM, so maybe you could bring Amishman the Guiness I owe him for helping my 1.8T pass smog.

"I'll gladly pay you Tuesday for a frosty beer today." Laughing

Again, looks great!

Oh now I remember what has been on the tip of my tongue but I could not quite remember it.... Beer! I was gonna get some beer. Cool!

Thanks for remembering. hehehe

I am sure I will see Stephan at SDM and will bring my drool towel so when I check out his ride, I can wipe myself clean afterwards. Laughing

Stephan, any pictures of those Recaro's inside your ride?

I think at SDM I need to sit in one and see how they feel.

Is it worth the $2K for the set????

The only pics I have are in the article from VWVortex.com.

Bringing Guiness beer along to you from Lundy ! !

The Recaro seats are just wonderful ! I got mine out of a Mitsubishi Evo. I know it's a Japaneese part but its real nice and the blue color matches the Synfalia just great ! .
The only thing I miss is the arm rests.
Well actualy after sitting it them for say about um 2 seconds or less, the arm rests I can live without...

If you buy the Recaro seats from GW they have arm rests.

Thanks for all the wonderful comments Very Happy
