Are you sure? With an FR and a Cupra next to each other I couldn't see a difference.

Here they are on my car...

Oh nice!

Well since you didn't say what wheels im guessing ur keeping it hush hush :)?

I'll wait and see till I'm 100% that I'm getting them first. ;)

I'm actually looking to fit standard suspension back to the car... sick of the road quality and how harsh it makes the ride at the moment - I don't have the rear adjusters and can't be bothered adjusting etc.

Car is running ace mate thanks, you didn't come to the RR day?

Will be on FR suspension though rather than the coilovers for a smoother ride. :)

Well thats me got the FR suspension (Thanks to Dave 'fr-tdi' and Ross 'Rossco906') should be getting that fitted a week come saturday - it can't come quick enough, if you seen the state of the roads I have to drive on a daily basis.

Anyways it's been a brilliant couple of days weather wise here in the West of Scotland so after work today I got back outside with the shorts and t-shirt and gave the car a good scrub ... took it to my usual spot for a couple of photos with my new phone.

The first one you can see the paint fade problem I have but Chris 'Bell_130' is going to get me some Dodo Juice - Banana Armour to put on the door and help that out a little bit. I also copied Knotty's idea with the SCN reg plate ... though I strapped mines onto my boot tray as I don't keep a brolly in the car, thanks Ross 'ross p' for the sticker! :D

100% mate... my car will be sitting like a 4X4 again but I'm well up for it. :)

Got the boot try off someone on here IIRC, it could have been eBay.

My girlfriend got it for me, £25 delivered... it's very handy as I carry a lot of small computer parts every day - I have a little section at the end with my locking wheel nuts and also an emergency torch in it. :)

Well I got my new gearknob in and fitted, it's an original Seat Sport part and I got it brand new for a reasonable price - I'm fairly impressed with it, just shame it doesen't have the 6-Speed markings on it. It's the yellow leather one.

Matches my dodgy dial surrounds, lol. :)

On an off-topic note, looking at those photos... the camera on the Nokia N95 is amazing! lol
