I can imagine, I guess thats a positive about having a black one... Can't wait for spring to come and I can get the summer wheels on and give it a good wash, clay and polish!

Should look great mate..

Me too, I was struggling for time today.. I've been hoping to get some wax on it since I bought it but I've never had time/or a dry day so I'm made up its finally done.
I've got a nice list of product ready to buy to give her a proper detail in Spring..:D

You can't muck it up, the spoiler is shaped at the back to follow the curve of the top of the boot lid and sit on it. Hard to explain but you can't go wrong

Anyway, today I changed the Rear anti roll bar setting from Hard to Soft. Having it set to hard in this weather along with brand new tyres that are yet to bed in is a disaster waiting to happen.

Got pulled for no front number plate too but the guy let me off because he said he couldnt be arsed with the paper work apparantly. Told me to put it back on when I got home. Unmarked audi a4

XC90 is a surprisingly decent car in snow not exactly disco territory but not bad either :)

Yeah I was going cheap so thought why not tbh but I it's drives smooth and that never really drove a Volvo the gear changes are bit slow but apart from that its seem to be a good solid 4x4

Went into town yesterday and met up with a mate with a lovely Ed30 GTI. I had recently collected some alloys for him when i was down south and it was time to get them on his car. Once they were fitted I drove off with some lovely new 19" OZ Ultralagerra's in Crystal Titanium. Not going to fit them to the car until the weather is better as just want to use them for Summer wheels.:funk:

Fastest Ed30 in town...........

Was thinking about getting them finished in Anthracite or gloss black but I actually think the Crystal Titanium will look good now!:D

Took my k1 to dynodaze in hinckley to get it on the rollers and see what its got. It made 295bhp and 293 ft-lb which didn't think was to bad considering I don't know what maps on the car and I need to get a rev-d as mine has split and loosing boost. I might take the pre cat out aswell as its ment to help a lot too. I'll post a picture of my printout up when I'm home.

i decided to to find out why my NSR door wont open, so i took the door card off, and broke it.
took the handle off, and broke it.
took the handle trim off and broke it.

wound the window back up and it decided to fall out of place and now sits wrong side of the seal.

and the door still doesnt unlock. Although, i did test the loom and i have feed and earth through it. new module is £110! new door card, and i think ill go for the cupra gloss trims.

*******eding thing.
