I need some tyres aswell anyone think there okay ??

 

[cupra-c_ya]

Im sure I have seen your car in exeter, rydon lane some time ago?

Bushybeaver! lol

 

[cupra-c_ya]

I will be keeping these in mind i thinks, I normally use north devon tyres near the M5 services as they were cheap, might be an idea to see what price they can do on goodyear F1's as well?

 

[bushybeaver]

Will ring tomorrow (North Devon Tyres) Not far from Willand.
If they can do F1's cheaper than http://mytyres.co.uk/start.html will use them, went there yesterday funny enough but late afternoon, so no one really about to help and give me prices.
Might well have seen me in Exeter btw

Hi mate, i bought Falken FK-451 225/45 ZR17 91Y Rim-protection tyres recently from mytyres.co.uk, and the service is fantastic! The wheels came with Falkens and i always replace with them!

I just checked and for (225) 40/18s they are 75.00. they have come down in price since i bought my 17s by a couple of quid and i havent had any probs with them! they are great!

bushybeaver,

willand, might of been there then as I travel to cullompton often, saw a black cupra R today come flying past me on the M5 south going to exeter, not you by any chance?

* ring north devon tyres, manager is called jamie, tell him what you can get them for, he might be able to beat it?

 

[tris]

they are good tyres i have them on mine

 

[bushybeaver]

Nice one Cupra C, might see you around by the sounds of it, I havent seen you today to busy smoothing my air filter box fuk knows why, anything to get out the house Not seen a Black Tinted Cupra R apart from mine around Exeter, I always look out for cupra's aswell give a nod as you do !!!

 

[cupra-c_ya]

my car is the old shape, supersprint exhaust oval shaped like the cupra R, also have the c u p r a across the back.
wouldnt you be better just getting a cai, nice deep sound, sounds good with a dv?

have you got a touch of revo?

 

[bushybeaver]

No Revo YET need funds just had a little nipper so money being drained every day
After reading many posts most people who have R's went for a green panel filter as maf kept messing up, but i wished to be honest i had gone for something meater !!!
Want to thread a cold air feed pipe aswell but its very tight cause of the twin intercoolers.
But hey, next E.I.P Shortshifer end of month.

p.s Dont tell the missis

 

[cupra-c_ya]

p.s dont tell the missus, ditto mate!

I went for revo first before anything else as I wanted more bang for the buck, and I got that for sure, forge dv, 4 bar FPR, supersprint exhaust, ramair maxflow cai
Revo is good money for what you get or any other software, you cant get that kinda performance from an exhaust or other mods.

You go for what you want mate, depending on the ££.
I am going to know your situation all to well soon, baby due end of july, so I is thinking get the goodies whilst you can son, baby comes and my wallet is going to be as light as a feather

 

[bushybeaver]

Its hard work !!! WOW its hard at the mo not sleeping lol you got it all to come then.
You've got the same attitude I had last few months before the little pest popped out went crazy on mods, **** scared Im never going to have any money again ever. but as long as you do them a bit at a time all is okay, will speak to Devon tyres anyway tomorrow hopefully get me sorted, need them it's first M.O.T is due end of June and Tax, money money money!!!
O yea need to get my Shortshifter before I cruise up to Goodwood in July aswell.
