Was a cold but sunny day today so I thought I would give the car a quick wash as it was dirty as hell!!! Here are a few snaps I took with my phone and digi cam :)...

*UPDATE*

Been a while since I've updated this but recently bought a few things to get that ball rolling again :)

Bought some spacers for the front finally to give it the stanced look and I love it!..Fills the arches nicely! So now im sitting on FK 17mm at the rear and FK 10mm at the front.

Also bought the flyeyes kit to do the headlights, which I've done but yet to do the back but will get on that when I have the chance.

Aesthetically, I'm pretty much done..only thing is coilovers which will be a while when I get those but in the meantime I'll stick with my springs!

Took some pics...

I bet! If I had the money that's pretty much what mine would look like! I'll just have to keep drooling over yours haha

Yeh it's not far off looking like yours haha :) took it in for service a couple of weeks ago and the mechanic asked if I was selling it, and then the next day a lad at work said he wanted to buy it off me lol. She has some admirers that's for sure!

What sort of response do you get on the colour? Obviously I'm a fan but not everyone is brave enough to go bright!! I used to have pink hair and it wasn't everyone's cup of tea haha

Noooo way not selling any time soon! Only had it 11 months so its not going anywhere!

Well anyone who has commented on it has been good words not bad so ive yet to receive bad press lol..i originally wanted white but glad i did get yellow as not many about in my area.
Wow pink hair, pretty out there isnt it lol :p

Yeah keep hold of her for a while, you got plenty of mods to do ;) i wanna remap mine but its just the money and engine issues...im on my second engine and so far its been running fine and no problems (touch wood). Might do it next year. I need to go to some car shows to show my baby off :p

Yeh yellow is a pretty rare colour when u compare it to the amount of white cars out there! I looked at the bright orange or blue before settling on white! Haha pink hair was very out there but I liked it!

Oh yeh the guy who was working on my car told me about the engine issues on the cupra I'm so glad I got the FR now after hearing about that! Fingers crossed u won't have any more problems!!

Well Edition 38 is coming up in September u should show it off there!

Speed blue is a great colour!...was you thinking of getting a cupra? Didnt know they did FR's in speed blue. If they did then you would be the first with a speed blue FR on here.

Dont get your hopes up just yet because cupra and FR engines are exactly the same, just toned down on power and torque thats it. Yeah i hope i dont get any problems :)
Where is edition 38? Vag show?
