Who me!!

Steve and i are attacking the R on Sunday, I do most things, Coilovers, Brakes, exhaust, Xenons, Engine Mounts, in fact anything. Steve and I are using the R as a bit of a Guinea pig, for the camera. I will be cutting holes in the rear bumper apron :eyepop: :eyepop: , whilst Sausage fingers sorts the BT out. Fixed and played with more complex things than a VW.

BT is here, as is all the camera stuff. Bought the centre Cup holder stuff today, just waiting for one of the rubber mat things (for the ashtray) so it can go in tomorrow.

Ah guys I asked the dealer and it turns out the wheels are black because the previous owner has them professionally coloured. Mystery solved!

Ownership update :)

I've done about 70 odd miles in it so far, and seem to find any excuse to go for a drive, like taking my bro to the station at 8am on a sunday lol.

Drove in heavy traffic yesterday, all the heads turned whilst stationary, great car!

As today was a beautiful day I thought I would take some nice 'urban' photos from the car park of my local sports centre. Needless to say the kids on the skateboard ramp were very impressed. Even if I did look like a weirdo taking photos of my car lol.

enjoy

thanks for the comments. The rims are more of a matt black finish Raffoul. 182 I don't think the car has been lowered, the black wheels make it look lower (I have emailed the dealer to ask anyway!)

Quick question for you lot, I drove 100 miles today (33 mpg!) and I left my car running for a few mins when I finally stopped, is this the right way to do it?

What is the procedure for long journeys and shutdown?

Thanks.

No need to leave the car on when you stop IMO, if you are bothered just take the last few miles of the journey steady, as for the alloys i just took a spare set of 19" Talladegas to the refurbers and was thinking about black but i chickened out LOL, went for a dark anthracite in the end
