Aha! I parked next to you when dropping my cupra off for the coil pack recall at Seat in Colchester. Wondered if you were on here.

Car looks good m8!

been a while since I've been spotted if I am honest! nice to hear people's views of the car... very marmite styling I am aware of that!

I will update this again tomorrow with up to data info on the Leon :)

right bigger update.

Much happened: Not really.

car is now on 120k miles, not had any issues for a while now, had the exhaust replaced with 2.5" piping all the way through, which has stopped the hesitating on full boost.

the rear shoes failed on me the other day so she rolled back into a lampost so now the bumper has a nice bit of paint missing.

I have taken the view im going for a colour change next year. my friend (who did my wheels) is looking for work, and i think i can generate him some work once the leon is done. bodywork starts in the spring as the weather improves... i have some dents and key marks which i wanted sorting anyway... so will do that at the same time as the colour change

The wheels need redoing as there are a few marks on them, and the silver shoes through which annoys me greatly.

other than that... a server in the next week or so and thats it!

hey mate, im good thanks yourself? i dont tend to go severals way much anymore... get stuck near asda too much! :cartman:

the car is looking a bit sorry for itself really, rear bumper damage, few marks on the wheels and its absolutely filthy lol.

one of my passengers has managed to slam my door so hard its broken the window again so im waiting for better weather to fix that! typically its on a door i've already repaired the seals on! :(

Yeahs im good thanks. Sounds like you've got a few bits to sort, but haven't we all... I know I have. I've got lots of little things I want to fix this year. You coming to AmD RR in April?

So the car is dead. Suspected Oil cooler or headgasket failure. Resulting in the water tank full of oil, and it dumping the oil all over the road.

Car is now on ebay for breaking, as i dont have the time or the inclination to repair it. sad day for me, but its the right thing for me to do with the house and such like!

Sucks though!
