After completely losing interest in cars for a while I thought it was about time I took my breadvan off the road for winter and pick something a bit newer and hopefully help me find the love again style_emoticons/#EMO_DIR#/biggrin.gif

So I've picked this up tonight ...

Its a 1.2S , Its done 11k and I'm really happy with it .

My plans so far -

*New alloys (Poss Polo GTi wheels)

*Front fogs

*Paint Mirror backs

*RCD 510 HU

Opinions welcome B)

looking smart mate

Thanks mate :-D

Thanks mate :-D

no probs

the 6R's are so tidy

if you was after the BBS GTi Monza alloys, get the bigger size ones (17's?) as the smaller sizes are a standard silver alloy, and the bigger ones have polished faces and the 'circle cut outs' in the alloy are painted black

Nice! I are they the ones from a golf? I have just bought the blue motion grille as well :-D

I'm sure the bottom ones are yeah, but i'm not 100% on that, as I have seen them on 6r GTi's on autotrader

good man!

Just got to find some at a reasonable price, I have considered a few other options but I'd like to go down the oem+ route with this one. Hopefully the weather will start improving and I can really get cracking! :-D

Skoda Fabia or octavor's grafite grey 17's would look so good on this. OEM can even add a liccle naughty VW centre cap if there 56mm (I think)

Bit of an update, I got my blue motion grille so I fitted it today....

Looks ace. Fog lights next!

Cheers Mate , I'm getting some fogs , having mirror backs colour coded , wheels , and a very light tint in the rears screen and rear quarters . I've de-badged the rear and silvered all the amber bulbs so far and I reckon that's about it for the outside :-D

Very nice buddy, plans sound good also!

Judging by the pics, are you on Instagram?

you got a new follower

Loving the bluemotion grill, its a great look.

Always thought that it restricts airflow, because its designed for diesel engines. Do you notice any difference?

Go Barry-styling and get a bonnet scoop

Thought that initially, but the original grille on mine is solid anyway so hasn't made any difference

Looks so much better, have you done anything else to the car?

Well to cut a long story short getting this car didn't spark my interest in cars again , work , getting married and life in general just got in the way and I just had no love for cars.

So last weekend that all changed , Although the 6R was fairly clean I knew it needed a full hit (clay / polish / wax etc.) I reluctantly started at 8 am on Sat and cracked on . 10hrs and many coats of wax later I was rather happy with the results......

Sunday I attended VWNW and picked up some pressed plates and some wind deflectors and fitted them on Tuesday....

Wednesday my front fogs arrived so got them fitted ....

Today I picked up these Ronal 0952's ....

I'm waiting for the lamin-x to arrive for the fogs , I've ordered the AUX input for the head unit as well

Cheers for looking . opinions welcome :)

Wasn't working today and my lamin-x arrived so I did my fogs ....

Looking good bud. Keep it up

Thanks mate, not to sure now on the lamin X think I'm gonna go back to clears?

Not got much done for a while so decided to crack on .

First fitted a RCD 510 to replace the 210

Fitted LED sidelights and number plate lights

Stubby Aerial

Managed to give it a clean and also fitted the Lower SEL Grille

Next I finally came to a decision on lowering and decided to opt for H&R Super Sport Springs 55mm/35mm so It was lowered yesterday
