Battsy Posted October 21, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2012 Finally I have put some work into my car, as stated above i purchased the exhaust and from day one, my plan of getting some bbs's has now finally been completed. The exhaust gives the car a nice tone, and i am pleased with the purchase although i may consider purchasing a straight through so i can get lower on the back (see pic)So here is how my car is sitting right now!In the next few weeks i will be buying a new set of coilovers and the back will be dropping as much as i can but obviously with the exhaust on i dont think i will be able to get extremely low.After exterior has been completed i will be challenging my interior so keep an eye on this thread!Thanks matty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Battsy Posted January 8, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2013 2 months has passed Christmas has been and gone and i now have my 1 years NO CLAIMS!! YAY me. Also just gave the car an MOT and it failed for emissions and a lower arm, got these issues fixed and re insured and back on the road .Before Christmas i noticed the top mounts on Aro where broken so i got them fixed and all the rattles which i had before where eliminated, i was so happy because they were really annoying I had been cleaning the car a lot and keeping the BBS shiny, i asked for an electric car polisher for Christmas to make my cleaning a lot easier as to no shock at all my Nan and granddad spoilt me rotten with cleaning bits, so ill be very shiny for a while. In the corner you can see a steam cleaner, it actually cleans the interior (apparently) so ill be giving it a go as soon as i get a free weekend or couple days to crack on with it, as a tester i did one of the back seats and it worked very well however i think i will be getting VAX washer as it will be much easier to use and probably leave the seats a lot cleaner. Im yet to try out the car polisher but i will be giving it a shot in the next few weeks, waiting for the rainy weather to go, i also got some spacers and put the on, there is a little bit of poke but not as much as i was expecting:excuse the glove on the door panel to stop the rattling andA few pictures over the last couple of months:More pics and progress soon -Matty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowan S Jones Posted January 11, 2013 Report Share Posted January 11, 2013 Just had a read through your thread, looking good mate! Will definitely have the 'Mmm' factor if you lower it further and get spacers on.How's the interior coming along? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battsy Posted January 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 Nice Mk1 mate Cheers mate , your car is an inspiration, so nice !Nice!!Thanks Just had a read through your thread, looking good mate! Will definitely have the 'Mmm' factor if you lower it further and get spacers on.How's the interior coming along? Thanks mate! and yeah i did have spacers on the rear but i need to get the arches rolled as when i had one person in the back it was rubbing, I will definatly be rolling them soon ! The interior is pretty standard at the moment, i am hiring a vax cleaner to clean the seats and head liner in the next few weeks, ive got a double din head unit and some fli door speakers but i really would like leather seats but i am saving for a lupo gti so when i get that i will get the seats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battsy Posted January 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2013 (edited) Decided to use my girlfriends camera and take a few pictures in the snow, they turned out pretty good ! Edited January 14, 2013 by Battsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battsy Posted January 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 Went to find out about a valet on my seats and was going to be £20, i'd rather do it myself but i dont have a vax cleaner, does anybody near cambridge have one ?
