The final touch of luxury is the electric sunroof, perfectly complementing the car’s distinctive design. These Volvo C30’s a fantastic blend of Volvo’s renowned comfort and safety with a genuine hot hatch.

The journey of transforming Tom's 3.2L V6 Audi TT into the absolute weapon it is today.

The 3.2L VR6 Golf R32 engine is a legend, but to keep it running flawlessly and pushing serious power, some critical work was needed.

• Timing Chain Replacement: Peace of mind is priceless! Ensuring the longevity and reliability of this fantastic V6 by addressing a common maintenance item and fitting a brand new timing chain. She’s purring smoothly and ready for the miles ahead.

The Pro Ram Air Intake is to help that V6 breathe deeper and produce that glorious induction sound.

A full Miltek exhaust system liberates the true, deep growl of the VR6 engine. It’s perfectly civil on a cruise but absolutely roars when you open the throttle.

The genuine Brembo 4-pot calipers sourced from a Cupra R. Paired with high-performance discs and pads, the stopping power is immense.

20mm spacers on all four corners. This wider track enhances stability and gives the car that perfect, aggressive flush look. 

genuine BBS split wheels professionally refurbished. The classic split-rim look combined with the TT’s silhouette is a match made in heaven.

There are always those extra little tweaks! From interior details to subtle exterior enhancements, the work is never truly done. I’ve put countless hours into ensuring every modification complements the car’s original DNA while significantly boosting its performance and appeal.

This TT is an ongoing project and a machine that Tom is incredibly proud of. It proves that with the right modifications, these V6 TTs can still hold their own against much newer cars.

This 2008 MK6 Fiesta ST150 takes the beloved Duratec hot hatch formula and turns it up a level. The chassis is dialled in with Bilstein B4 Pro shocks, 40mm Pro Sport springs, an OMP front strut brace and a BAF Motorsport K-brace, all supported by treated subframes, an Airtec torque mount and functional foglight brake ducts to keep things cool under pressure.

Under the bonnet, the 2.0 Duratec breathes harder through a Fusion Fabrications intake manifold, 60mm throttle body, K&N filter and Phase 2 Newman 200 cams. Race-spec HT leads and an aluminium expansion tank boost reliability, while a strong remap unlocks a lively 200bhp. A heat-wrapped Mountune 4-2-1 manifold and stainless decat system finish the power setup with a fierce soundtrack.

Braking and driveline performance are equally sorted: Mintex discs and pads, DOT 5.1 fluid and braided brake lines deliver tight, consistent stopping. A new LUK clutch kit with slave cylinder and custom uprated driveshafts by Rob Ransom keep the power planted without complaint.

Raw, responsive and full of character, this ST150 proves exactly why the MK6 Fiesta still sits high on the hot hatch throne.

This 2004 Yamaha R6S is a flat-out street weapon—lean, loud, and built to hunt corners. Uprated brakes and a GPR V4 steering stabilizer let you throw it into bends with absolute confidence, while Michelin Pilot Road 4s keep the bike locked down no matter how hard you push. A fresh remap sharpens every blip of the throttle, turning the already razor-happy R6S into an even more explosive ride.

The attitude matches the performance. Custom-painted lower fairings give the bike a brutal, track-born look, amplified by stealth mirrors and aggressive vinyl detailing.

The soundtrack doesn’t stop there—an uprated Scorpion cat-back exhaust adds a crisp, fiery note and delightful pops under throttle, making every run as thrilling as it looks. Despite its understated exterior, this Fiesta has the punch to challenge any hot hatch on the road.

This Mk2 Audi TTRS has been meticulously transformed from a snarling street car into a full-blown five-cylinder predator. Stage 2 tuning pushes 450bhp through a Sachs uprated paddle clutch and pressure plate, paired with a rebuilt gearbox featuring flat-shift tuning for lightning-fast shifts. Power flows through a freer-flowing, less restrictive downpipe, while walnut-blasted intake valves, an uprated high-pressure fuel pump, and a large front-mount intercooler ensure the engine breathes clean and hot. Oil temperature, oil pressure, and boost gauges give total control over the car’s ferocious output, while uprated shocks and springs, combined with 19” aftermarket alloys shod in Michelin Pilot Sport 4S, keep the chassis dialed in for maximum grip and precision.

Chassis rigidity and drivetrain response have been honed to perfection, making this TTRS as confident in the corners as it is brutal on the straights. Looking ahead, the build is set for a serious evolution: a bigger turbo, reinforced engine and dogbone mounts, methanol/water injection, and a full aggressive aero package including side skirts, front splitter, and rear diffuser. A rear-window retint will complete the look, transforming this already vicious five-pot into a track-capable, road-legal weapon that’s as menacing in presence as it is on the throttle.

Track Prep for Next Season

Next year’s focus is on turning the Bora into a more track-capable machine. Coilovers, grooved discs, track pads and high-temp fluid will boost stopping power and control, while a single-mass flywheel and uprated clutch sharpen drivetrain response. An oil cooler, catch can and strut braces add reliability and rigidity, with a bucket seat, racing wheel and semi-slicks completing the move toward a true track-ready setup.

This VW Passat B5.5 Estate 1.9 TDI has quietly evolved from a dependable daily into a seriously capable project car. The basics have been future-proofed with a new clutch and flywheel, refreshed brakes all round, upgraded suspension and a stronger driveshaft. New headlights sharpen the look, while a larger turbo and bigger wheels hint at the direction this build is heading.

The next stage is already mapped out: a fresh radiator and front bumper, followed by a remap to wake up the upgraded hardware. Long-term, the goal is ambitious but attainable—pushing this diesel estate toward the 300bhp mark.

A practical load-lugger with the heart of a performance project, this Passat is shaping up to be far more than the sensible family wagon it once was.

This Volvo 940 B230FK has been transformed from a solid Swedish sedan into a fully committed drift machine. Up front, a 16T turbo, green-top injectors, Jetronic chip and a full 3-inch intake and exhaust setup give the redblock the punch it needs, while a catch can, digital temp gauge and electronic boost controller keep everything in check. Power hits the ground through an M90 gearbox paired with a TDI clutch, pressure plate and dog-dish flywheel for dependable, aggressive engagement.

The chassis has been purpose-built for sideways action: welded diff, hydro handbrake, angle kit, extended track rod ends and solid engine mounts all combine to deliver sharp steering response and predictable breakaway. Inside, a bucket seat and harness hold the driver firmly in place, backed by a boost gauge to monitor the action.

With fuel cut the only job left on the list, this boosted brick is just about ready to hit the track and spend its life sideways.
