Not really of an update but went to get another car this morning for my cousin, so yeah thats 4 arosas and a lupo between 3 of us lol

Anyway he got it for a good price, its a 1.0s so its got all mod cons like cl, leccy windows ect... pretty nice spec, so hes gonna start working on his, pedal box needs doing as bite point was sooo low lol so yeah you will probs see us conveying around once i get the sport back on the road lol

Here it is

So kinda inspired me to clean mine so heres some pics

Trying out the new jet wash. First clean the sports had in at least 2 years....

Paintwork came up very well! haven't even waxed it just jetted it

Daily looking presentable again haha

And the 3 just chilling haha

So ordered some parts to finish off the engine bay, will be here in a couple of weeks but its worth the wait

Will hopefully be getting it back on all four wheels just need to fit front coilys but weather and time has stopped me atm

Cheers man now you've reminded me can you text or fb me need some things doing before August

Will do it now

Looking good Jake! Nice progress

Cheers Dave, I have kinda lost love for it, came home yesterday, to see my dad looking pissed, he was doing me a favour by putting calipers back on but the normal jack wouldn't fit under, so he had to use the little Vw jacks you get with it cut a long story short, I came home to a dented door and fucked sill, it fell off :/ went to drive it but tracking and camber is out and it handled shit, plus battery is fucked so yeah she's not in my best books and honestly dont know what the future holds with it

and first decent pic of it in the day

Right literally straight after i posted that depressing post earlier, decided fuck it so went outside and raised the front coilys, while i did this got bored, decided to trial fit a wheel to see if i did need lower profile tyres as i thought turns out i do, anyway once i raised it and took it for a drive, its SOOOOOO much better! like standard suspension but just a little more firmer, I'm definitely a happy boy again lol, anyway ill let pics do talking, people let me know what you think

Front raised, adjusters at rear will be coming out after mot so it will have a pretty good stance

I'm quite like the black and silver look, didnt think i would but not gonna change colour just new tyres lol

Wish i could fix cars, i can do basic stuff but i wouldnt dare do some of the stuff youve done to these cars bit of a shame about the sill though

Nice job you've done btw

All about just getting stuck in mate, gotta learn from somewhere, and cheers Dave really appreciate it, mot time soon

that sills quite an easy fix mate and so is the door tbh

get it sorted you know you want to and then youll forget it happened

Tbh mate I've calmed down and not fussed by it lol,, saying that ill proberly get it done when it's on the road

Not really an update but got this for my 18th :)

Hoping to get the tracking done and mot sorted by the end of the month, then new tyres and arches rolled and its ready for july!
