It's no longer only cool to modify a Golf if its a GTI. In fact, more-door, base model cars with uprated motors are all the rage these days, as Tom Healey's example demonstrates. Modifying a car subtly is something that's really, really hard to get right. Many have tried, and most have failed. It's a balance that's hard to hit properly; too much and you're trying too hard, but too little and it just looks like you haven't bothered. But, when it all comes together right, the resulting creation can be regarded as a piece of automotive artwork; where everything works in perfect harmony, with understated mods blending seamlessly with rare parts, to create something that looks like it could've rolled out of the factory.
