Title: uk rally g40+cup suspension
Post by: mk2-limited on April 03, 2009, 08:18:23 PM
evening,
Germany needs help....
I am in the mk2 business so I don't care that much but...
we have at least as many fans of the 2F G40 as you have.
What happened to the old cars and their parts?
Are there still parts of the UK cup G40 suspension left? We never had this event over here.
The guys can't hardly wait to see the videos of the series.
Still available?

The pictures are not of cup cars, they were track cars, I think these pictures are off Rally cars in Marisus or somewhere like that.

good evening,
thanks for info,
i know that the pics in first place are not the cup version.
focus was on the suspension.
i do have an mk2 g40 and the cup version.
the guys from the netherlands are also known.
for now im (we are)just interested in the 2f  uk cup version.
we never had those cars,volkswagen never did race them here.
the mk2 g40 cup had different parts then the limited 500 series or the second 1500 batch.
they had an subframe,shorter suspension,different eprom and the body was "welded all thru".
were kind of looking for all the features or modifications just happend to your cup version.
heard that the main uk vw importeur built those cars?
were looking for history,numbers of built cars......
what happend to them.
any info is very welcome.
please help.
thanks
marc
