Hi, joined not too long ago while looking for a new car. Picked this up earlier in the week so I thought I would post up some pics.
Hope you like, i'm made up :)

Little update, not been on for a while!! Had it lowered on springs for now until I can afford some coilovers and got some tyres for the wheels I have had sitting in the garage!! Here's a couple of pics

Going to get these wheels refurbed, or maybe completly different ones, not too sure yet.

Not too sure which coilovers tbh, either the Jamex ones or FK's depends on the moolah!!

Centres will get some colour, not sure which one LOL

It's a 1.8t sport. Just need to get the damn thing re-mapped :)

Rear has been sorted out as it looks lop-sided in the pic from behind. Going to get the Anti-roll on soon and get it wound down some more!

Do you think the rear wheels will pass an MOT?

Err.. well I would imagine the owner will care. Unless he intends driving it illegally.

As far as I know (I may be wrong) it will only fail if the tread of the tyre sticks out further than the body, which it doesn't so hopefully will be ok. If not, the original wheels will be back on Wink

Who are you asking about illegal lights??

Spot on mate, exactly the reply I would have given and the 'dig' about the lights would have been aimed at me mate!!

Keep up the good work!!!

Fair comment mate apart from the fact that driving with 'illegal' lights effects other road users whereas IMHO driving with wheels that stick out slightly wider than your wheel arch is realisticly going to effect no-one!!

But then I am sure you all agree that most forum members have something on their car that they shouldn't have.....maybe even you PJ!?!?!?!?! Stick out tongue
