Half an hour! is that all?! well no excuse then ey haha, would be awesome to meet some of you guys

Flash Red and Platinum Gray do look awesome together always, you'l get some proper hot shots of them!
£15 for 2 hours and 30 editing is an amazing deal! best get it smartened up 1st though
10" it is then! fantastic! still haven't got a filter or done anything! life's a bit upside down really so its taken a bit of a back seat but when I get sorted Il be cracking on with it!

 

[armo]

yep no excuses lol just an idea really so you can meet some of the lads/lasses and mooch round the cars.... gives you motivation. Worked for me anyway.

Not good splitting up like but life goes on if you know what i mean. Lifes full of **** you just gotta keep digging lol

 

[ladyleonlover]

Yeah I expect the meeting would be great to get some motivation..my air bag light randomly has come on so I'm a bit down about the Leon at the moment lol. Il get my mechanic mate to have a look

Aye yes you're right..just keep digging..with a jcb lol

QUICK UPDATE

Next week the car is going in to get a timing issue sorted, engine oil and gearbox oil change, new rocker gasket and new thermostat.

Shortly after that i will be removing the front bumper to go in for paint, and while the car is layed up i will be fitting my new 20 groove discs, Mintex Red pads and the new stainless down pipe and de-cat.

Hopefully when its all back together a few little issues i have will be ironed out and i can continue to play nice. Once i have the bumper back i can finally fit the cupra R splitter wehey its only been in the spare room for 4 month lol

Il get some pics up of the new gear when it arrives

Anyway for an update on the car i have finally had my timing issue sorted and the car goes like stink now, so much more power and no EML! Gearbox oil has been changed so that feels much nicer, engine oil and filter has been changed, thermostat, front brakes are now drilled and grooved with mintex pads and the rears ebc vented with mintex pads.

Oh and the bumper and wings are painted...and the splitter fitted. couple of shots....

Long time since iv had the chance to get on here, so a little update of the leon.

Not a massive amount happened, took it into big fish tuning 2 weeks ago and got the old Elite map removed and replaced with a custom map, much much better, no limp mode any longer, better fuel economy, much smoother and far more usable power, very happy!!

Other than that iv just been giving it some serious TLC ready for the show stand at Vw Festival in leeds in a few weeks, had a shoot done, here some pics

Once again massive thanks to kurt, excellent pictures, very happy

How come you went back to n/a? sick of the bills lol

 

[gezmeister]

Had a lexus is200 for a bit, wasn't too bad on fuel, but i can get a full tank of fuel for £50ish and that lasts me 2 weeks, same in the lexus was £75! So thats all extra money for mods
