There really really good for coilovers, not crashy.AxG wrote:Let me know how they ride, I fancy a set depending on how harsh they are !

It was actually more crashy with H&R springs tbh, rear was solid, now it has a little bounce again.
really happy with them.

I'd quite like mine to be a bit stiffer, sport mode isn't too bad but comfort and normal feel like I'm in a boat.
But at the same time I car school with a few older men 50-60's so I don't want it super stiff

Collected and fitted my Gloss Black mirror caps from my mates paintshop.
Then decided to give it a quick wash as it was a little mucky.
I have recently coated the whole car in carbon collective oracle, platinum glass and wheels. So impressed, water just sheets off and dirt falls straight off.

Washed the other beast too

Not actually fitted anything, but ordered OEM Bluetooth and trying to find a RNS 510 ready to fit in the next couple of weeks, also booked the car in for its reverse sensors to be fitted

nooooooooooo! hoping mine will polish out too, but think it may be a bit of a cheeky touch-up job. boo.
victor's parked in a public car park overnight. had to go and check on him a couple of hours ago to easy my worry and moved him into the darkest, furthest corner space i could.
i'm not gonna sleep tonight.

Thanks guys! [emoji41] any Midlands people need any refinishing/bodywork/paintwork/resprays doing, I can highly recommend some good friends Lee and Adam @ Edmonds auto refinishing near Burton-On-Trent. Impeccable work and very reasonable.easyrider wrote:+1 good work MattAy!whiteDevil_170 wrote:The mirror caps look great.

I went on a mid week trip to Wales. Some of the roads near Lake Bala were brilliant and I took advantage of the 'sport' DCC mode for the first time. Had a little race with a Golf R and an Impreza WRX (which the missus wasn't too happy about).
This was the best photo I took during the trip. You can see Snowdon in the background.

Given it a good drive round Cannock Chase this morning. The postie had been and dropped some bits off on Friday so finally got round to fitting those....
Fitted the octavia sport pedals. So easy to swap.
Fitted an r8 coolant cap also.
Springs and Intake next but I have a custom blanking covers for front portion of the engine and a fully custom engine cover in the works, it will look super simple and clean.
I will have to start a build thread me thinks.....

Washed mine. Nothing exciting.
Then the wind blew dust all over it so now it's got a layer of dust on it.

I decided not to wash the car at all as there was too much red dust everywhere!
