Thought it was about time I put a little post up about my pride and joy. It's an 06 registered TDi Sport 140 with a relatively interesting past. Well, when I say interesting, I mean moreso than the average car anyway! It was one of the dealer demo cars for when SEAT joined the BTCC with a diesel, so when I purchased it in June 08, it was still completely covered in touring car graphics - yellow and green all over!!! It was already fitted with the Aero/BTCC kit and BBS 18's, which was what attracted me to the SEAT. However, the graphics were not quite to my taste, so I had them removed to uncover the Lunar Grey paintwork.
Since having it, I've done a few things to it...I'm a natural born fiddler with cars, I just can't leave them standard! Mods to date:
Revo Stage 1 remap - special offer from Revo plus hankering for a bit more oomph. Fantastic modification, makes the car feel like it always should have in my opinion.
OEM armrest - fantastic mod, if you don't have one, order one...NOW!
Hella dark rear lights
19" RS4's - They look OEM to me, fit the arches just nicely.
Powerflow 100mm rear pipes. SEAT, for whatever reason, decided that the standard exhausts should be about 2 inches below, and about an inch in to the bumper, which just looked cack, so Powerflow put 2 new pipes from the silincer and new tailpipes which sit snuggly into the outlets.
Linea R grille - so the grille matches the grilles in the bumpers. Looks ace.
Wind deflectors - brilliant invention, and look cool in my opinion.
Chrome bulbs front and rear
I think that's about it. Future mods? I'd like to sort the stereo out, it's a bit poo. A nice 7 inch touch screen with sat nav and bluetooth built in would be nice. Also, a bit of depth to the sound wouldn't go a miss, it's too tinny as it is, so maybe some subbage too. Also, the brakes could do with being a little sharper for my liking, sometimes they lack "bite" but I've no need to go the whole brembo route, so maybe just some grooved discs or something.
So anyway, enough babbling, here she is:
Cheers!
