(Rated 4 out of 5)

This book is everything you'd expect from Max Power, minus the half-naked women. Its a hard-cover book much like the traditional haynes manuals and its full of ideas on how to make your VW golf Mk2 look like a Max Power car.

The book covers topics such as In Car Entertainment, fitting a bee-sting antenna, removing and filling the hole of the old antenna, de-locking your doors, delocking and smoothing your tailgate, replacing interior features like gearstick gators, handbrake gators, steering wheels. It features a section on alloy wheels, fitting neon lights inside and out, fitting a debadged radiator grill, big bumper kits, fog lamps, induction kits and lowering your suspension. It also has a fairly comprehensive section on the law and the legalities of various modifications. There is even a neat section on the history of the MK2 golf.

The manual features the same car throughout (a mk2 golf driver 1.6) and shows the car's progress from start to finish.
A very good book, all in all.
