  1. well the fact that the coilovers are all seized and its so low that it wont fit on the brake rollers, one of the inner cv's is completely shot and as the inner is part of the shaft thats £170 just to get a new one. exhaust is blowing in a few places, the front bumper was barely attached, there is a repeating fault with the abs too. all those pics are from good angles, there is some damage on the the front and rear bumpers and the front wings need attention too. :/
  2. Unfortunately there is alot wrong with it that i wasnt told about when i got it. it'll be off the road for a week before the mot while i save money to sort everything out.
  3. Wanting to refurb the wheels at some point and have an interesting colour that i will then continue to tie in on other aspects of the car. nothing too bright or garish though.
  4. Well heres my Bora, Swapped it for my Lupo GTI as i was spending faaaar too much on fuel and with work being a bit hit or miss at the moment i needed something cheaper to run, tax ETC. Please bare with me as this is c+pasted from e38. Heres how it looked when i first got it Obviously with it being a highline its got the full leather, heated fronts, cruise control, rear parking sensors, stuff like that its also on coilovers and fully polybushed First task when i got it was just to give it a good clean, it had been a daily/ family car. Its now had a full clean and a hit with my mates DAS-6 DA, some black hole and some megs wax. I also was on the lookout for some new wheels for it as even though the monza's looked alright on it they aren't really to my taste. So after a trip up to Edinburgh I got hold of these Thats how it stands so far, updates will no doubt be slow and steady, there are some little bits of paint that i'm wanting sorted out but for the moment i'll just be getting used. its no show car by a long shot but it does what i need and looks half decent the majority of the time so i'm happy enough. Heres a couple more pics i got last night after the car had a good clean

  11. Price dropped on my advert and car will come with 6months tax. hate to say this but i need it to go I'll miss it
  12. Slightly dis-heartened with how little interest the car is having. on here and other forums. bit of a pig that PH aint free anymore
  13. Well, up for sale on here as well now http://forums.clublupo.co.uk/index.php?app=classifieds&module=core&do=view_item&item_id=237
  14. End of an era. The lupo is now up for sale. unfortunately i am having problems listing it on here though :/ its been a lovely car to own but all good things come to an end
  15. It'll be my 3rd french car haha luckily its not too bad to drive. but i swear fench people must have really really small feet because the pedals are so close together!!
  16. Unfortunately yes it is.
  17. one of my mates has a car that he is gonna let me have for mates rates. almost ashamed to say what it is but it'll get me from a-b which is what matters
  18. MAJOR UPDATE Times are hard so unfortunately the GTI is going to have to go the journey I'll be putting a For Sale thread up when i get back from holiday with the parents.
  19. Is it really worth even bothering taking the risk just because german font plates "look cool"? Mine had them on when i bought it but changed them that day as i didnt fancy a fine. Better just putting up with UK font.
  20. Great work! I wish i could make it to UD to have a sneaky peek around this! Also wish i had enough patience to clean mine like that!!
  21. Fingers crossed i should have the car back tomorrow! Also got some adaptors for the teledials now so just need to get tyres sorted then they can go on once there is alot less salt on the roads! Have also been looking into solutions for getting the rear lower, so far no luck.
  22. Good price, Might help to put the offsets up as well though
