Well after a while of doing nothing i have a few updates 
Newspeed 28mm rarb waiting to go on
Had a clamp missing so got a lad to make me one up at work on the lathe! Cleaned and painted
Super pro arb bushes for my 2nd hand octy farb and new droplinks
As my dogbones knackered got a 2nd hand one and put powerflex bushes in and polished it up a little bit. Red powerflex diesel rear with powerflex front bush
Hopefully all will be fitted this weekend
Cheers

Nice car, looks clean! Pretty much identical to mine (thread coming soon)
Any noticeable increase in vibration since you fitted the powerflex dogbone bushes?
Keep up the good work

Uprate dogbone mount reduces engine movement under harsh acceleration enabling more power to be put onto the tarmac, also reduces 'wheel hop' and wheelspin
Negative is it increases cabin vibration as there isnt as much give. Thats why ive opted for the red diesel main bush as it has a lesser shore rating than the yellow petrol one so hopefully the vibes wont be too bad
Proof in the pudding will come tomorrow

Fitted the dogbone today!
Omg what a mission! Took me the good part of an hour to smash the old one off :O
Was mega corroded on!
Old one
New one fitted
Couldnt be bothered fitting my tt front arb as it looks too much work!
Verdict! Omg what a massive improvement. Actually very very little vibration at idle! Would recommend to anyone, gear changes are soo much more crisp

New plate! Means jack all to me but was a steal at £100! Suppose it has a J in it and i like the EGO bit
Hated the plastic cheapo handbrake so swapped it out for a nice perforated leather one off an octavia vrs
Also got rid of the horrible grey plastic rear view in favour of a black one
Subtle changes but its the small things
