new discs and pads on all 4 corners.
the rears especially were a mess. The inside pad on each rear caliper was seized solid
How much did that set you back if you don't mind me asking? And where from? I'm running the 1.8 so assuming they will be the same.....

Bonnet gas struts done today, and just ordered some for the boot to get it popping up automatically!

Need to get some new tyres ordered before my MOT because they'll never pass, just deciding if I replace the front 2 or go whole hog and get all 4 replaced at the same time...obviously going for PS4S but £600 for all 4 is keeping me hesitant from clicking go.

Decided after 11 years its possibly time to leave the SEAT fold, Stage 2 Cupra will be going up for sale in next few weeks.

At the moment looking at Porsche Cayman S (981 3.4 not the new 718 2.0T) it wont be as quick as Leon but I want it for the noise/driving experience.

And there was me thinking the Hyundai I30N :)

That sounds nice, and is a sub 5 sec, 320bhp+ rear wheeled sports car. Damn your leon must be quick :)

0-60 Leon will be slower but overall faster due to power, but I'm approaching 30 now haha so its all about noise and cruising now!

Approaching 30?! Plenty of boy racer left in you.
It's not time for the mid life crisis car yet mate.

Washed, polished and waxed again.

Last wax only lasted just under 3 months which I think was down to not letting it set enough before buffing off. Hopefully this one lasts longer.
