The roads are fooking my car, I mean, what do we pay ROAD tax for?

Cold isn't helping the carb either, taking 30 mins to warm up. Lame.

Can I do a payment plan? An initial deposit of 2 moths and 36 monthly payments of 12 buttons?

Can't wait to move out, damn you finders keepers.

Ended up swapping the wheels for some p-slots, decent tyres and they are pretty much mint. It drives awesome now so i'm happy! Not 100% on how they look though, needs winding down definitely.

Didn't even know you had this man, looks nice, annoying you've had to do all that. But you also know its all done and fresh now!

Looks pretty tidy, personally I like the golf front, black is nice too.

Thanks man!

Finally some updates...

Went on holiday for a week and left it with the sexy mr reynolds @ OBD works who gave her what she deserved:

AP coilovers

Handbrake cable adjustment

New vented front discs and pads

new rear brake shoes and drums

Fuel filter, Oil filter, new vacuum pipes, other various perished pipes, full oil change

new genuine drivers side window mech

full tracking & camber adjustment

4 x new door pins

TRS strap removed

Front end lined up (bonnet catch was bent, uneven gap between bonnet and wings)

Currently waiting for the new standard non bodged exhaust to turn up aswell.

By the time I was back she was fully together so i don't have great pics, will get some decent ones soon. Also should be collecting some wheels in the next couple of weeks.

Finally got the new wheels fitted, still haven't got them fitting 100% as they still need tweaking tyre/spacer/height wise but I'm pretty happy with it so far.
