KatCowie's LCR 210 - Foxy :)

[8bit]

Your a funny guy Niall. Yes, and if Im going, so are you!!!!

scuse me, I think you'll find my attendance record has been a sight better than yours lately

Probably good to get one more car meet in before the weather gets much worse, then see if we can't get this night out sorted that's only been talked about for about 18 months...

EDIT - meant to say, the drop you got on those coilovers looks good, makes me wish I'd gotten round to that before buying a house!

 

[KatCowie]

Looks mint Kat! Very nice pics!!

Thanks Wayne, the pics is just ones I sneakily took during the shoot. The professional's ones are amazing! I can't wait to see them.

Yeah, my attendance record has been 1% this year, and that was Crail! My bad. I will try and make a point of coming to more meets, it's just the fuel and that.

Yeah, I will come to the next meet, for sure, I might start a thread actually. Oh and the night out!! Another excuse to wear my shoes

Thanks, it's 20mm on the front and 25mm on the back lower than standard. Perfect height for me, honestly wouldn't want to go much lower. It just becomes impractical then!

 

[DMackie]

Car is looking bloody good now Kat, yea will have to get another meet and a SCN night out sounds pretty good too.

 

[KatCowie]

Awwwww, thanks buddy! The V2s just finished it off nicely, I think. I can't wait to see it in the paper, as his photos were amazing! He was the second best car photographer in Scotland, and had done a shoot on a Veyron Supersport before mine! I made him laugh saying it must have been quite a step down to shoot mine lol.

Another meet and a night out is a must!

 

[DMackie]

Yea they have made a big difference, you will just have to be cautious getting up to your house.
Ill look out for the suppliment in the paper.
Think i may start buying some new bits for the car in the coming months, kinda just want the car detailed and sealed before the crap weather starts, fancy helping out? haha

Will have to get some up in the meets page for a night out.

 

[KatCowie]

Yeah, had no issues so far, apart from coming off the ramp during photoshoot, when my splitter got some fresh war wounds! It was new on after respray lol. Will order a new one after winter.

I cant wait until 28th Spetember! sad or what eh?! lol.

I don't mind helping out, I kind of like detailing, can you tell?!

I might start a thread actually! needs to be organised soon.

 

[t0m]

Well, had a crazy few days lately! Ended up getting a Ferrari 360 Modena to detail beginning of the week, that kept me pretty quiet lol. Then today, I had the Press and Journal out to do a photo shoot of Foxy, to be featured in the Your Car Supplement, on 28th September. So all you local lads, buy a copy!

Few pics I managed to get today during shoot. Not the best, but the photographer showed me his ones... Amazing.

I cannot wait to see the feature, and so going to buy a print for my room!

These are really awesome pics Kat! Credit to you, this project has really taken off now..

The stance is spot on. Looks low and mean!

Well done!

Actually yeah, I epically failed to make the national again this year so I can't really say anything

Thanks, it's 20mm on the front and 25mm on the back lower than standard. Perfect height for me, honestly wouldn't want to go much lower. It just becomes impractical then!

Hmm, I might look at lowering springs and shocks then; don't think I really need the adjustability of coilovers but I would like the handling benefits of being a little lower and the increased comfort of better suspension...

 

[Willie]

Kat, is the paper blanking off your reg number?
Not too sure you want it to be that well known locally

Car lookings great BTW.

The LCR looks so much better with a 20mm drop, it gives it the best of both worlds.

Thanks Tom! Yeah, now that the V2s have settled, it's spot on Im so chuffed. Just spacers, and then I will be a happy little lady!

Yeah, so wheesht!!!!

I had Spax 30mm lowering springs on my old leon Cupra, they were good. I still have them actually, I need to get them up for sale. I wouldn't have bought coilovers so soon, had I not been given an offer I couldn't refuse!

Willie, no I don't think so. I wasn't that concerned, until I just read what you put...
Should I be worried?

Thanks, taken a while but I've eventually got what I was aiming for. I love the ride height, no way I would go any lower. Not owned it a year yet, believe it or not! This time last year I still was driving Cupsy!

 

[KatCowie]

Don't you love a present from a special friend?

Saturday I spent the day cleaning a friend's FR+, so decided to take a few pics with both cars. Nothing exciting, but he was chuffed with my effort.

Im still currently trying to work on the S3 Covers, trying to cut them to fit and also trying to blank off the headlight washer on the 5.5l Screenwash Bottle. Turning out to be a lot more work than I first thought...

 

[aaronipswich]

Yup I have been looking for a blank for that bottle too

 

[KatCowie]

You had any luck? Im actually considering just selling them, as I am really struggling with it, and I can't get the help I actually need to do them.

 

[drka-drka]

shotgun

 

[KatCowie]

Derek, I wouldn't sell them to anyone else! I know you want them. If I can't get them all fitted by end of October, they are yours. As it's really starting to get to me now!

 

[drka-drka]

Lol WIN! haha yeah even tho they will make a couple of my new caps redundent i still fancy a bash at it.

Just keep at it, youv got men around you who can bash them into place anyway haha the man way

 

[KatCowie]

I just think they will tidy the bay up so much, make it look cleaner. Thats why I want them, as Im all about clean! lol.

Haha, yeah, Paul has my Screenwash bottles (yes, all 3!) so he's trying to blank off the headlight washer outlet for me. Next challenge is to try and fit it in the bay, it's MASSIVE!!!! Think I need to even take off the boost pipe to fit it...

 

[t0m]

Good pics Kat!

That FR really needs lowering haha..

 

[KatCowie]

Thanks Tom

Haha, funny you should say that, he's away home with my old lowering springs! I've already bought it a Fabia Rear Wiper and HIDs too lol!

Lol you can't beat starting with a Fabia rear wiper!

When I bought my LCR, I drove straight to my local Skoda dealer to get one, literally the 1st drive I took the car on was to get it's 1st mod
