    Thank you to everyone who downloaded the mod and to everyone who voted for it in the BeamNG Modding Awards 2021, special thanks to @Kermo for creating the event.

    Thank you for checking out my mod.
    This mod consists of 6 trims (1.6L, GTI, Country, Polizei, Group 2 Asphalt and Gravel) from the same car model, the Bensinger Ibex. It is heavily inspired by the Volkswagen Golf Mk1 but distinct in its own way. All trims have a detailed interior and exterior. Please enjoy my creations and feel free to give feedback.

    Notable features
    -Detailed interior with interior camera view, sounds, working light up gauges and steering wheels
    -Beamng EU size license plates
    -Optional tow hitch in parts menu (1.6L and Country)
    -Working siren and police lights
    -Optional roof bars with generic loads (1.6L, GTI and Country)
    -Shift light (Asphalt and Gravel)
    -Improved engine and exhaust sounds for both standard and race cars

    Ibex 1.6L
    The 1.6L is a budget hatchback putting out 78hp to the rear wheels through a 4 speed manual gearbox. Perfect for city driving.

    Ibex GTI
    The GTI is the performance trim of the Ibex. Thanks to upgrades such as mechanical fuel injection the engine now puts out 94hp. It also gets a 5 speed manual gearbox, stiffer springs and dampers with a lower ride height and 14 inch alloy wheels giving this trim a sporty and lively feel. Perfect for spirited driving.

    Ibex Country
    The Country is an 4x4 version of the Ibex with lots of features that make it very capable off-road. It has the same 78hp inline 4 engine coupled to the 4 speed manual transmission, this time featuring a low range gearbox and locking front and rear differentials. The Country is also fitted with big all-surface tyres, a full size spare and front and rear bars.

    Ibex Polizei
    The police version of the Ibex has all the features of the standard 1.6L Ibex but is outfitted with a siren, police radio and a German police livery. Perfect for catching all the baddies.

    Ibex Group 2 (Asphalt)
    Bensinger Motorsports entry into Group 2 racing. This dedicated track version of the Ibex has a bored out 1.8L inline 4 engine putting out 150hp. It puts all this power through a 5 speed manual gearbox and a locked rear differential to semi slick tyres. Perfect for track racing.

    VERY good mod, i like that the bensinger has an interior and a working license plate system like the other cars in beamng. My favorite config is 1.6 even if it is the base model, hope you can continue with this mod!

    I appreciate the amount of care and detail that was put into the car. The plastic trims for example are well blend together, no imperfections for afar or from a close-up.
    The 1.6 version felt like a true economy city car, i pushed it past 100km and the car started to show signs that it wasn't made for those speeds, that's pretty neat and gave it a "crap-box" feel without it being one.
    The GTI is devoid of that defect, the suspensions and swaybars seem to handle high speed much better, still it capture the spirit of the old hot-hatches of the past; It's adept at turning, nimble, and yet the back of the car want to drift
    The Country i didn't try much, i guess it does the job
