Thought I'd get some pics up. I think there are pics of mine scattered all over here, so this is just a nice, neat little round up of my car:

Don't have many pics on the net of the car as standard, so will just post pics with some of the updates on it

Some **** knocked my drivers mirror off, so was cheaper to replace with DTMs (should prevent the same thing happening again)

Cars looking well.

cheers bud. i know wheels arent everyones cup o tea. hell, they aren't what i wanted, but i needed all new tyre, but instead my mate sold me those wheels cheaper than what tyres woulda been. plus i was bored of the standard 13s after seeing them on the car for more than 2 1/2 years (at the time of putting those rims on)

05-12-2007, 23:18
where do u tend to go at night in chesterfield..been over a fewtimes but dont see much.might be selling some standard cupra soon, no scruffs and good tread all round..would suit car better.
if your getting cupra front bumper, id start keeping an eye out for skirts aswel.oh and get rid of the lights on the bumper.apart from that looks a tidy motor..

Mat
06-12-2007, 10:12

not my cup of tea, but fair play, cupra kit would look smart

Wayne88
06-12-2007, 14:39
cupra kit would make it look really nice and a better set of wheels mate but it has got potential to look really nice

Cupra Kit. Different wheels. Rid of those lights. Convert to cupra front and rear discs. Im not too sure of DTM's on mk3s....

Good car over all though.

Mat
06-12-2007, 17:43
in cars..

I don't. Used to up until about a year or so ago. All the local chavs and "Chesterfield Cruise" members hang on Dount. As I said, it's pretty much all chavs. I used to go up Town Hall up until about 2 years ago. The guys up there are much better. More into perfomance than big ass body kits. But think they go elsewhere now as some of the Donuters now go there and obviously attract attention from the local Plod

Mat

Some may remember the bridge in the background from when i went about 6months ago and took some. They were shit and the car was ditched. There's also another place I like goin, with a beautiful old bridge in background, and lower half of the car park, you get a church and skyline in background. However, the last time I went there, the car was lowered and only just got out of the car park (steep entrance and exit ramp), now I have the LCR Splitter on there's no chance of getting out in 1 piece :D

Mat
28-02-2008, 10:06
Oh, and for some reason, I'm goin through this phase of gettin my car in the strangest places possible. I have a few lined up already such as waste land and high grass parts so it looks like the car has been dumped, but it's too muddy at the mo. Also got this thing about getting it on a Zebra crossing, which i managed, also want a pic parked on a roundabout! And guess what, I found one I could use :D Just unsure if i can get on and off it :D

Also want to park on a train platform for some reason and take pics. That would be cool :D

Vicky M
28-02-2008, 10:59
Are you still going through your half clean half filthy phase?

Mat
28-02-2008, 11:12
nah, got a full clean and wax yesterday

Vicky M
28-02-2008, 11:50
Lol good good, sure it looks lots better!

Mat
28-02-2008, 11:53
yeah, but no matter how much i wash and wax it, it still looks like a 1.4 ibiza :(

Vicky M
28-02-2008, 12:07
You know the answer to that, new car! :D

Mat
29-02-2008, 00:19

really need a tripod. in fact, i should invest in an SLR in the near future

Yeah one or two slightly blurry!!

Well if you stop talking to strange women and concentrate on taking the pics you'll not need the tripod so much :cartman:

Splitter made a massive difference........and so did a good clean lol

I really like the smooth sides on these cars, change the wheels thought!

Mat
29-02-2008, 12:19
i am after some new wheelies :D

when i was looking at getting a Mk4 the other week (still not 100% on them, but they are growing), the first thing i said i would do is remove the door strips! That's one thing I've always loved about my car! No strips. Seems every car made has rub strips on the door! They just "forgot" to add em to the Mk3s :D

Oh, and yeah the splitter does make a difference! Makes goin places fun! I know where I can and can't go from experience with it lowered and no splitter. However, I was driving down a country lane the other day, and was a huge dip that caught me out! Had to reverse about 500yards back and go elsewhere ;) LMAO

Myki da Pyki
29-02-2008, 14:17
Would look better in silver lol

Mat
29-02-2008, 14:21
what? the car or wheels?

Myki da Pyki
29-02-2008, 14:24
The car of course lol

Mat
29-02-2008, 14:30
nah! always liked black cars! will never have another colour! only black! (although red is starting to look good ;))

Black FTW!

******* to keep clean, and shows scratches like you wouldn't believe! Look good when they're clean and shiney tho :D

Myki da Pyki
29-02-2008, 14:32
Once you black you dont go back lol

Chris3boro
29-02-2008, 15:33
lol if you say so! ;) personally unsure about wheels Mat but better than standard and they were cheap when you got them if I remember right.
What engine mk4 would u get?

Mat
29-02-2008, 15:46
I was looking at the 1.9 TDi FR (influence by T. Spark)

would love a Mk3 Cupra, but insurance quote was like 1,700! WTF. There's a lad near me who must only be 19 and he has a cupra? how the **** can he afford insurance? Has another car aswell!

Think I'm gonna save for a Mk3 Cupra (always liked them. Think the Mk3 is the best lookin one of the lot! More aggresive looking than the Mk4s ;))

Myki da Pyki
29-02-2008, 16:06
Insurance cant be that bad for you mat can it!! You aint much younger than me so dont know why your gettin quotes of that ammount. I was only payin £1300 with 2yrs ncb and 9 points, im down to £486 with 3yrs ncb and no points

Mat
29-02-2008, 16:12
FFS!

I got a quote on a Mk4 FR for the same I'm paying now (maybe a few quid a month more)

anyway, guess i'll save, pay the rest off on this car, then look for a decent Mk3 cupra! Which by the time I can afford one, there wont be any good ens left! Will no doubt all have high mileage, and not be worth tuning!

Sky Insurance is how lol

Obviously im fully comp with all mods declared. In my experience with insurance Sky are the cheapest with Greenlight in second place lol (all be it £200 more)

Mat
29-02-2008, 19:26
just sent a quote request off to greenlight

Adam R
29-02-2008, 22:29
greenlight wont touch our 1.4's. they said to me since its not a performance car they wont give competative quotes

02-04-2008, 14:45
Where'd those wheels come from Mat?! Deff a good decision, looks great.

Mat
02-04-2008, 14:52
some guy was sellin them near me, he got them as a spare set when buying his punto (hence the Fiat badges :D)

Mat
12-04-2008, 15:30
What an eventful 6 hours I've just had. Made a start at 9am by cleaning the interior. Instead of leaving it to dry, I got my mothers hair dryer on it :D

Just as I finish, rain. Two minutes later and it's stopped, so on to cleaning the outside. Rinse it, clean, halfway through, rain & sleet again. Anyway, I continued to wash the car in the rain :cartman: I'm sure my neighbours must think I'm wierd, my mum even laughed lol.

Stopped raining, gave it another clean over, and dried. Then on to polishing, unlike last time, I managed to polish it uninterrupted. Then applied a coat of wax after. Just in time too. What happened next? Rain

Gave up putting in the effort I planned to put in, so things like sills and pedals have gone unwashed :cry:

Didn't waste time when it was raining, used that time to check level, tyre pressure etc.

Anyway, here's a few pics from today

Glad I managed the wax. The part of the car now exposed to the sun has dried beatuifully (other than windows, didn't get chance to do them :()

Mat
12-04-2008, 16:55
Looks like it's middle of summer now. Bright, Sunny and warm. Neighbours kids out on scooters with ice creams etc. Think I'm gonna carry on cleaning now. Door Sills and another wipe over (no doubt will be some water spots :cry:

Chris3boro
12-04-2008, 17:18

Mat
12-04-2008, 19:16
15" and lowered 40mm

Mat
12-04-2008, 19:20
ok then, so I went back out to do the bits I didn't get chance to do earlier. Rain hasn't left much of a mess
http://i125.photobucket.com/albums/p72/bigardmat/ibiza/Pre%20GTi%20Fest%20Clean%20-%20April%2008/Copyof100_0481.jpg

Gave it a quick wipe over with some Quick Detailing Spray. Then set on to cleaning the alloys better, door and boot sills and polished the windows and another coat of rain-x

No, tried to get Nic (LunaLupi to go down with me), but as she pointed out, £20 for one run for a laugh is expensive

I think she'd win too :D

standard power to weight hers is quicker

on top of that, she's stripped hers out, whereas i have a huge 15" sub in back.

but then again, being a bloke - i'd be the better driver of coarse ;)

ha ha

wondered who'd mention that 1st! I told Myki ages ago that if you notice, I never take pics of the passenger side!

The wing is ****ed! I was turning left, when some twatin pizza delivery guy undertook me and "bam". Got the wing set in shed, just waiting to get into body shop (guy needs it for 2 days during week which I never get! hopefully will be done end of may :D)

everyone has quote about £300, but one of the sponers on local cruise site said £180. bumper needs pulling bacl slightly and door needs a little pulling out.

also gonna get rear quarter on drivers side sprayed as there's a huge scratch near petrol tank. He said that'll be extra £50.

If I had the cash, I'd get a full respray. But I don't see much point if I'm not keeping the car long. Oh well, if I get my bonus this quarter, I might tho :D

Went for a random drive and whilst out, I found these 2 random, abandoned looking places, so had to turn around and grab some pictures:

Looking great! Good idea with taking pics in different random places!

What size are your wheels?

Mat
20-05-2008, 16:21
15s

Gordz
20-05-2008, 16:23
Thought so! You not thought of slamming it to the floor? Would be pretty easy with only 15s!

Mat
20-05-2008, 16:25
its lowered 40mm now. Speed humps on every road leadin to my estate, only just gets over them now. Also scrapes some car park exits.

If I don't get a cupra, and I still have this by august (MOT due), i'll get coilys for it (gonna need new shocks i think for MOT). Can play with the height then ;)

Too much choice!

standard power to weight hers is quicker

on top of that, she's stripped hers out, whereas i have a huge 15" sub in back.

but then again, being a bloke - i'd be the better driver of coarse ;)

I believe you did.... :p

Mat
20-05-2008, 17:11

Never mind women drivers-its the elderly that annoy me on the road!:rifle: Thing is, they'll do 40 in a 60 zone all day long, but then stay at 40 when they enter a 30!

HOPELESS! (some, not all)
