I'll do your catch tank no probs for you. Buy my old mani off DPJ and i'll do your oil pressure at the same time.


I'll let you know when we do my ARB;s.

Why do i need your old mani?

Yeah no probs, we can have a Cupra day, fitting bits.

No car today,as the council have dug up the pavement accross my drive, so no way of getting the car in or out. Hopefully be sorted by the end of today.

Dunno, hopefully it'll be easier, to get on the drive, likely hood of that though, is slim. Although if they fu(k it up, i'll have the council around to sort it.


Hmm, nothing's easy on these cars is it? I'll have to take a look at the best way to fit them,

alll was going well to well i think.......
just came back from a awesome holiday in kos with the mrs where it was boiling, so 2night had to take the cupra for a spin!

really wet and slippery out so was being careful to a certain extent, and my car was going really well

came into a roundabout coming down from 3rd to 2nd carrying my speed through the round about which was quick (plenty of understeer) to find the back end stepping out big time right around tryed to correct it but there was no hope did a 90degree spin into the round about hitting it drivers side wheel on first followed by a a huge skid across roundabout ending up about 2 foot away from the directional sign of the round about. so came to a stop with half my car on half off,

thought id caused mega damage intercooler sump lower arm wheel etc because there quite a thud but to my relief or horror was just a a kerbed alloy and chunk from tyre and a lovely colour coded leon cupra splitter scrateched to death and hanging off

fair play it put the sh#ts up me a little but once a came off the kerb to find the spitter isnt even broken just hanging off and looks worse coz its painted and a muddy front bumper i was happy, so a trip to reno wheel tomz to hav my wheel done and take the spitter back to the body shop and im done

so look out for those roundabouts its slippery
