What did you and your MK2 do today?

[Pedestrian]

Received my new wind deflectors

Are these actually any good? My brother got some for his Type R and after a week they just didnt stick to the top anymore. So when the window came down they slid down a bit. He took them off.

Greetings folks - well after two weeks with the new car I got a tyre pressure warning light, so went to get it checked out and needed two new tyres after 800 miles. Ouch.

A few mods minor cosmetic mods carried out:

Dealer Badges Removed
Plain Number Plates
Seat Tax Disc Holder
Seat Valve Caps
Aluminium/Red Handbrake Cover (read overpriced piece of plastic...)
Stubby aerial went on but removed after problems with DAB reception.

Hmmm, great - can't post pictures yet. Makes this rather a pointless post.

Oh well - 2012 2.0 TDI 170 in black.

Why didn't you just pump the tyres up? I'd be willing to bet you didn't really need new tyres

I think they are good everyone on the forum raves about them (Team Heko) and it's a first time buy for me

They're awesome. I love my wind deflectors.

They look good mate, good purchase!

As above wind deflectors (team Heko) excellent never move so long as you use the clips supplied

Don't see the point in the wind deflectors myself, but each to their own!

FINALLY (10k since purchase) replaced my god awful Gerutti el-Cheapo tyres with some F1 Eagle A2s.
Turned out alignment was off 5mm(!!!!) as well. So got that fixed.
Drives like a new car

Looking good mate, i've been meaning to do this for ages. How much did it cost you?

I'll take that bet - bet you £400 that I did need new tyres

Did I not mention the big nail in the rear which by the look of it had passed through the front as well? Oops

When you live in Scotland like we do, they come in very handy! They also stop the problem of water running from the roof and onto your lap when you turn a corner with the window down.
