[cupra.al]

your car is going to be insane when its completly done.
when i said before pics i ment the car its self lol.
whats happened to your old borbet wheels? they didnt get sold to a local lad with a light green ibiza did they. as theres one that parks on the ridge with the borbets on doesnt look nowhere near as good as yours did with the old wheels on.

[cupra.al]

there was a vag meet down ivyhouse lane last summer was kinda hoping to see this car down there yours i mean,theres ment to be another this year at a different local venue havent got a clue where though its called havoc gti or somthing along those lines i believe.

 

[seattoby]

yeah i went to that. the car was ready lile 3 days later lol oh well.

he has got a few plans but is kind of lazy me thinks.

 

[cupra.al]

you should go to the local seat meet thats on here on the 19th of april should be a lot of people going.

 

[seattoby]
