I looked at your sig and thought you had fitted a bloody great rear spoiler to the Vento.

Then notices (when I'd woken up) that it was part of the rear wall brick colouring!

SLR's with HD video are starting to be phased in, so wait until they do a really good one at entry level. Seeing your a Panasonic man, you don't fancy the Lumix G1 hybrid?

I know nothing about them really mate, only just started reading up on them but will probably go second hand first rather than spend big on one i dont know how to use.

See what you mean about the wall spolier, lol...never noticed before.

Just looked at the pic, Warren.. I see what you mean about the spoiler :happy:

Its also been said that it looks like a have a bad boy bonnet to in the pic. Will have to change it now i have new ones.



Ive got people tagging me in pics on FB who i dont even know but have randomly accpeted. some good ones on there to !
 
Fooooookin hell.

Odd mileage to, i am sure i sold it with 76k on it ???

oh well, not mine anymore......I LOVED that car, i think i still do a bit it made me smile everyday.

£2k....wow, good luck to him. Sadly when sold up ithad little MOT and TAX or i'd would have been looking for that.

oh well, brought a splitter today for the vento. Only a CL one but should take the edge off the bottom of the bumper.
 
sorry mate, wasn't trying to dull down the thread, just thought you might have not seen her since :)

sweet new splitter, what's the difference in thickness?
dropping her lower? :p
 
ha, no worries mate, thanks for the link. It is good to see it again and it does look like the lad have taken care of it and maybe give it a wheel refurb.

Not running a splitter at the moment as the lad before was getting through a VR one a month.....these ones are more like little reverse lips, should look good.

I normally have college on a wednesday but am off next week. Thinkng of hitting COV with Ollie / skot / dubbedout ect if you fancy it.
 
oh i get ya, yeah but VR ones are quite massive, so no surprise, not like it's standard height :p lol

sorry mate, i will try, but uni work is taking over my life for next 2-3weeks :(
will let you know, also a guy on here called Cupra Jim would be interested, he's got a Leon Cupra, i think he went down this week (he's from cov himself)

wicked! :)
 

Those cars are awesome. I love the Golf cab. Red and white theme works really well. Im tempted to go for that now. :confused:

Your Vento is awesome aswell mate. Dont know how you can drive it that low, I had to raise mine as I was getting rubbing with my wheels.

Any more plans for the vento??

Dan if Id had the money when you sold your valver I would have taken your arm off for it. And the 4,5,6 hour drive each way would have been so worth it.
 
looking sweet as F*** fair play to ya, there's summat about the rounded edges that looks just right

as for stripey lights old skool i rememeber doin black then blue then green on many a mk2 cavalier - lol

Thanks so much for the comments guys. I am loving driving it and owning it.

I tend to steer clear of Speed bumps and pot holes and swapping from 45 profile to 50 has really helped. 5mm doesnt seem like alot but it feels ten times higher.

Next up is some interior DIY mods, I am looking for old hawian shirts and will be using the material to cover parts of the trim giving the inside a beach theme. Also on the look out for roof bars and a broken surf board.
 
isn't it 10mm dan
as the profile (45 or 50) is a % of the width of the tyre :)

but eitherway looks SCHWEETTTTTTTTTTT!
 
pics pics and pics today....seems rude not to after such a nice day.

Although everywhere ive been today and everytime ive looked in my mirror i seem to have had a different chav stuck to my bumper. a VTS, a zetec s fiesta a chaved up focus....makes me laugh.

No mate i didnt...I am supprised its still going the way he drives it. I just tend to rock back now. I havnt been tempted yet into any silly behaviour by any chavs....not yet anyway. Its hard to in the jetta....it just makes you so happy would be a shame to get angry in it.

There were lots of knobs pulling into the turning as i was leaving and did spot a few panda cars around.
