I love what you are doing! I dig the fact they your not trying to make it look fast or feel to race car(ish). The stock porsche seats and other small details fit right into the whole cars vibe.
I would call the style "factory sport" as it mixes mostly factory components and textures, both porsche sports car and econo vw design... almost seamlessly (unlike sticking race seats,guages..ect into a otherwise stock interior)

Im in the US but we have a vendor for that mag localy. I also enjoy the mag alot.... cant wait for this issue!

Fine job my man. It is always good to get GL VW's in the public eye. Keep it up.

Thanks for the comments gentlemen, I really appreciate them. Super VW you mentioned one of my favourite parts of the car: gauges. They're mounted in a one off black anodized ali strip in the dash, and were all VDO until I found a super-accurate SPA design combined oil temp/pressure sensor which worked a lot better than my rather vague VDO ones. Also I chose the wheels ( Revolution RFX) because of their rally pedigree. You see a lot of mk.2 escorts with them and not a lot of dubs, however it now seems they were quite popular in the late 80s/early 90s on cal-lookers. Mine were originally detailed in peppermint green.....

Very clean. I can see why it was chosen as a feature. Congratulations.
