£1000 To Spend.....Need Help Spending It

[jordyboy004]

Seat Leon 1.8t 20v 2001 Onvi Yellow.

Things Im Getting Done This Weekend, Not Included In The £1000

1. N249 Bypass
2. Calipers Painted Yellow
3. Wheels Sprayed Black With A Yellow Outside Rim
4. DV Put On

I Live On The Isle Of Wight, As You Can Imagine Its Full Of Old People And No Real Roads To Put Your Foot Down On So Performance Is Not Top Of My List. Would Rather Have A Nice Looking/Sounding Car Over Speed. What You Spend The Money On To Achieve This

 

[LEE69]

You want an Exhaust from your other thread, so buy one

 

[jordyboy004]

im not spending a grand on an exhaust tho am i lol

 

[LEE69]

I never said you were, price a good one up

 

[holty]

Remap & suspension?

 

[turboboy]

save it for a holiday/big tv ect! 1000 quid spent on a car in 1000 quid thrown down the drain!

 

[Richie-LCR]

Milltek and coilovers I'd say

 

[jordyboy004]

heard you have to do all the other mods like. filter, down pipe, exhaust etc etc before a remap? already got a holiday coming up in sept lol. got my tv last week but i see what your saying

 

[holty]

Depends on whether you want a generic or 'custom' remap really.

 

[DamianPM]

I'd say go for suspension.

Damian @ DPM

Whys that then?

 

[DamianPM]

Because the standard suspension on the Leon's is rolly and generally pretty poor. Why do you ask?

All depends what you're after really, price range from £100 to over £1000.

I'd say go with a good springs and shocks kit, maybe something like the Weitec and then get an uprated set of Eibach ARBs.
