What did you and your MK2 do today?

[Jimbobcook]

The alarm stopped working for a week or 2...and suddenly started working again!? (weird Can system!)

I had chirp enabled but the chirp stopped randomly but now randomly back Happy days!

It clearly just needed a break lol

had the car about 3 weeks and havent even had a chance to polish/wax it, hard for an ocd clean freak, hoping its not lashing down or snowing this weekend so i can give it some tlc with my new dodojuice supernatural hybrid

In the midlands we are supposedly getting another 9cm of snow tonight then rain all weekend.... Bad times!

 

[Roganjosh]

ffs! there is one of them "superstore" tescos nearby with a big underground carpark and great lighting, i may get desperate and go down the back where its empty and give her a quick wax to get my "detail fix" lol!
had to go down before with the civic before a show as there was a really "misty breeze"!? that had the polish smearing doing it in my driveway

Nice choice of tyre too. About time you got rid of that nasty pig snout exhaust

 

[Drizzle]

Jarre when you say remap is back on, did Seat remove it or did you?

 

[bigbadjay]

Sweet!

Ahh I see, now I'm getting rid of it you let your real thoughts known haha!

Hopefully fit that later, no idea when the wheels will go on as I have my winters on and think they're needed at the minute!

Benji, quick one for you. You still using IMG Seat?

Well they were the last dealer I used yeah, but that was months ago. Why do you ask ?

 

[ddc]

Nope. Was parked up all day. Did the car have black wheels on it?

Yep, black/dark grey BBS CH's only caught a quick look as we were both navigating around the mini roundabout but going in opposite directions.. Looks like you've got a doppelganger

Lol. Looks like it. Do you work in cosham? Because ports down hill would be a super place for a meet. During warmer weather of course.

Well I hope this snow doesn't ruin my plans tomorrow! Going to the vauxhall ( sorry) garage to price up a new Astra vxr ! I know they are not for everyone but they are amazing, I would buy one for the seats alone
I have been onto my insurance company today and the quote was ridiculously cheap considering its a group 35 insurance too, so full steam ahead

I hope the snow does ruin your plans lol. Cant believe your changing your Beautiful car for a VXR! Don't get me wrong I Love VXR's but your car is pure amazing!

don't worry they are definitely ruined ! The Leon is a nice car but the new vxr is just brutal, one went past me and it looked stunning, especially in the blue. I have test drove the Megane Rs too and that was superb to drive, but I couldn't live with that awful interior. Seat better hurry up with the new Cupra otherwise I can see myself in a vxr

GOOD! Yeah, I do love VXR's was going to sell my FR when insurance is up and get one but because I'm only 20 insurance is mad! + There not that reliable, I'm sure a brand new one would be though.. Arden Blue is stunning, would be my choice

How much it cost you to get the alloys powdercoated dude? Want mine done.

Yeah I turned 20 a couple weeks ago and insurance is just about getting reasonable now I have been driving 3 years plus 3 years NCB. I have been quoted 1500 on my own policy ( parents named) for the vxr and the Leon insurance is around that anyway. I hated the old vxr but the new one is something else. Then again I haven't driven one yet so I still might not like it shame there is no DSG style gearbox though, that is the best thing about my car and I won't have another car with a clutch again unless it is something very very special.

I Just turned 20 today lol, £1500's awesome! Insurance on my FR was £2800 (Its only a TDI), Bloody rip off. Though ill be on 3years no claims when my next insurance is up, Better be much cheaper!
I Love all the astra Vxr's look so mean! Im yet to try DSG, might go test drive a cupra to see what its like
