Golf VII Lowgo-project
BACK TO OVERVIEWposted: 2017-01-10
Jörg Altreuther was inspired by his son's Lego-faible. His Golf VII became therefore "Lowgo".
The children's plug-in system from Denmark was the inspiration for the Golf VII GTI Performance of DOTZ Teamrider Jörg Altreuther. To be fair, the predilection of Jörg's son for Lego. The concept extends across the car - from the roof over the bonnet, the C-pillar to the tires.
The "Lowgo" is wheeled with Toyo Proxes T1 Sport. Dimensions: 225/35/19. The tires are dotted onto DOTZ Revvo dark 8.5x19. The concave rim with the cross-spoke design has something in common with the Lego stones: the lightness. As an eye-catcher, Jörg used the heads of Lego figures as valve caps.
But also under the hood, Jörg´s car contains a few innovations: An ST XA coilover reinforces the "Lowgo" motto, the KTS-expanded mudguards on the front axle give the GTI some extra muscles. Bastuck's stainless steel exhaust system makes the golf speak in a grim tone.
The ideal addition to the red of the car are the black glossy lacquered front flap, the sill, the rear diffuser and the mirror flaps.
Partially in black is also the foil-design by Wrapup: there are three-dimensional Lego stones on the roof and the hood to see.
The Stig is also a must for a streetracer like Jörgs Golf VII. According to the definition of Top Gear "the world's best Formula One driver" is immortalized as a foil on the C-pillar.
