Take it off Willyjay, make that rear clean again. It's not a honda civic from the 90's.

Got the Eibach Bilstein B12 pro kit fitted today, it feels great. Much more solid on the road.

Front plate holder removed and measured to get a plate made so theres no overhang!

Good God.

Glad it wasn't just me!

Bought my 2.0 TSI GT 58 Plate, Remapped stage 1, VIM activated just need to update my Firmware and Maps but not 100% on what Firmware i can install

So today I changed the plates back onto its original registration ready for its new owner to collect it next Saturday. Last time out of the garage tomorrow to give it a good bath, then she goes on Saturday! Enjoyed owning and driving it but it's time for an upgrade!
Keep up the good work on the forum people

Over and out!

Phil.

Gave it a deep clean, as it was bought yesterday and the previous owner had a large dog!

Reduced size plate received and fitted. Makes the front end look so much cleaner!

Changed my front brakes (discs and pads) myself and took them for a test drive, they feel pretty good and no noise + dodgy vibrations. I used Brembo pads and discs

Bought a luggage net. But there are only 2 hooks in the boot. Managed to clamp the other 2 hooks on the backseat frame somehow.
Part number: 1K6 867 689 A

Where did you have this made? I'd like to get one for my new R. Thanks

Finally installed new rear brake discs and pads to go with my fronts. Rears were a lot easier than the front - got brembos all round now


Of course I punctured the dust cover for the hub screw

Out of interest, why have you got tape on the hub cap?

Ordered some:

Eibach springs
15mm spacers and bolts all round
Rear passsnger LED's
Boot LED
Footwell LED
Stainless footrest

Don't even have the car yet

EDIT: just booked it in for a stage 1 tune as well

Fixed

Woke up this morning car windows wide open... Luckily it didn't rain last night. Tonight puddle lights on so went to check and the boot was open. Hopefully I've just been sitting on the key

Now my car alarm has gone off twice tonight for no reason!? Anyone else had random electronic issues before?

I phoned the VW garage regarding my scirocco to be. Satin black alloys done, cambelt done, just waiting for it to go to the body shop to smooth over a few small marks. Should be ready by Friday! Sat in a cafe eating a haloumi wrap, checking out the Eiback sportline springs which will be added at a later date. They do sit a bit high as standard don't they!

Still hungry and waiting.

Took mine to the body shop and had the bonnet resprayed. Looks as good as new now. Now just the wheels to be fixed tomorrow and the real fun can start.
