Looking good

You getting it remapped ?

Blimey you've got some cash spare!!!!! Wouldn't pay more than £500 for that lot on my VXR even though in realtiy i'd get it done for cost plus 100. I'm more interested in why you needed steering arms? Don't you like slowing down for speed bumps? or is there a recall i'm missing?

Oh and note the enjoy the car bit...... I totally devasted a New Golf GTI this morning on the way back from a last minute christmas shop, we both stopped of at a track. Accelarate to 70 then depress sports button whilst still accelartating

lol what a laugh, so nice to have fith as my mental gear, still gives me the giggles

Get that leather retrim sorted boy! you have drivin' to do!!!!! lol
