Well after making the biggest mistake of my motoring like selling my 1st LCR i got myself a MK1 cupra tdi and a 2002 civic type r (never again) i got my self my 2nd 2003 amk 210 lcr in red. It had alot of work done when i got the car and it wasnt to a great standard such as the home made catch can out of a protien shacker (still havent removed yet). but on the other hand did have some good things such as a stage 2 revo map. After having it 6 months now and done a few things to it to put my stamp on it i thought id do a thread.
You will have to excuse the really bad pics this thread was a bit last minitue ill get some decent ones tommorow when ive done my brake refurb

The day i got it

Hey mate i used to run stretched tyres on my old VW Golf



Have to say if your gonna still use it as a daily forget the stretch on the tyres as in my experience the ride was harsh and if you have to avoid every pot hole because if you do hit one you will ruin your wheel !
Think they they would look great on your car without the stretch :D

Nice ride Tony,I'm just up the road in Sunny Gainsborough. I think it's a cool look mate,but these Lincolnshire roads arn't the smoothest in the world to say the least.

They'd complement your car really well Tony, but I'd buy some correct fitting tyres with decent walls straight away having lived in Lincolnshire for a while. Unfortunately for me, the roads aren't any better in Notfolk and Canbridgeshire.

Great to see another LCR back to its best!

well not been on for a while so thought id do a smaal update. thanks for the replies on the x5 wheels but i didnt get them in the end:( there just not practical enough for a daily drive. But to make up for it i did get a badger 5 TIP and JR cone from a fellow member for £120 delivered:funk: so im happy with that.
