I know man. I heard that apparently you can go on a speeding course though to avoid points and a fine the first time though? One of my friends did that actually.
And lol I know, totally suprised my car wasn't gone, especially where it was parked. And there was £15 in the ashtray, sunglasses, **** load of CDs in the glove compartment.

Tbh I'm suprised some arses didn't rip off all my stickers and wipers too lol.
But yeah I know the C pillar sticker is iffy but I'm gonna keep it on over the winter period I think.

Stickers would look good on the Mk3, they suit the style of the car better than they do on the Mk4 imo.
Yeah mate, Speed Awesomeness, I mean Awareness :) You still have to pay a fine though :/ Rather pay £60 instead of having points for 4 years :p

Buy these badboys Adam: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=190617815303

lasted 4 months so far and are dirt cheap!

DAMN! They're cheap! I might buy a set for when the obvious happens, and mine go pop :)

Quick Update.

Went to Leicester recently for a couple of days and a night, then down to Rugby with a couple of uni people. Got pissed off the same night I went to Rugby so decided to go back home to Lincoln, however on the way a girl was texting me and I decided to go stop off in Leicester for the night and see her instead of going home.
Would have been decent, had I not woken the next morning to move the car (parking restrictions) only to find some arse had smashed my drivers side wing mirror off. It wasn't a car because it was pavement-side not road-side.
So yeah that's really pissed me off. Anyone know how much a wingmirror usually goes for?
The dash also reads 'OIL' whenever I start it up and am not sure if it needs a service either, all expenses that I can't afford. Bad times.

I will take a couple of pictures of my wingmirror tomorrow.

In better news: I still haven't recieved anything regarding the speed camera through the post.
 
Tell me about it. Don't even want to drive the car right now, she looks sorry for herself.
I'm prepared to go up to £30 for a wing mirror. Any idea how much it'd cost to get it fitted as I have no idea how to do it myself?

I hope you at least got your end away!
 
Dude that sucks! People that do that should be tortured :p

As Jord said above, at least you smashed it.. And if you didnt, I think we need to have a couple of words mate ;)

Hope you get the mirror sorted though bro..
 
That's the worst part lads.
I got boobs but not much else, although there was chat about a next time; although now there isn't because her flatmate who I nailed is getting jealous despite the fact she got back with her ex. Confusing & very **** times!
 
It's a complicated situation!
But to be fair, now that the first one is back in a relationship she has no right to do anything. She hates her flatmate now so it's a deliberate **** block as her flatmate now won't talk to me. Give it time and no-one'll give a crap anymore though ;D
 
Picture update.

We'll start with the crushing disappointment.

It was actually hanging off worse than this initially, and what made it worse is the black marks. They'll probably buff out but one of them has scratched into the paintwork quite badly.

Random free stickerbomb from Fast Car mag.

Believe it or not, but the exhaust scrapes on some speedbumps, still want it lower.

And then one just showing you how dirty she is at the minute. Not felt like cleaning her since the wing mirror incident.

Hopefully getting the wing mirror replaced soon and will get the front end (and possibly rear end) dropped lower at the same time.
I'll be happy after this and after those marks are sorted out.
 
needs a clean ;) get some FR or BBS rims on it, smooth the bump strips & slight tints and i think it will look good :)

nice work so far though
 
Well I'm looking to get that wing mirror replaced before all else. And if you go back a page you can see what wheels I have sitting in my loft currently, just saving for tyres.

Doesn't look too bad that, just a new bracket, looks like you wont need a new mirror cover or mirror.

Hahaha, yeah I'm leaving those ventures. Got one with actual meaning which seems to be starting up now! (I hope).

Yeah, the cover and glass are intact, just need a base. Dave at SERE quoted £40 for the base, gonna shop around and see if I can find it cheaper elsewhere.

Still haven't got my wing mirror sorted but I've thought of an idea for these:

Thinking of buying x1 SEAT, x1 Audi, x1 VW and x1 Skoda centre cap, one for each wheel.
I think it's quite a cool idea and haven't seen it done before - subtly flying the VAG flag!

Opinions?
