Just a quick update

I was planning on getting a nice new exhaust system placed

but the bastards at yarmouth asda decided to put in some new violent speedbumps which i failed to notice, doing 30mph over them

ripped my whole exhaust off

thats why my car was on a trailor :(

But now i have a lush new exhaust system fitted :)

and one side of my car is finished :D

hoping to get other side done in time for gti festival

plus bumpers looking good

i sold the car like that over a year ago, plus i lived in a tiny village in the middle of nowhere, would never get touched :)

top marks for getting the camo off mate. most people dont bother tidying cars like that up anymore. :)
