Damnit you fluffed the engine bay shot.. the only one i was even remotely interested in lol

^^ Ill do another, and a couple more as your interested

gunna steam clean the alloys at work anyway, so Ill do the engine and get it done then

apparently... Ive read my turbo will only be running at about 3psi as its the non-sport model*  and Ive got a mate with the proper gauges etc.. so Im going to up it a bit soon

*apparently they only made one model at first, but old people were loosing the back end with the kick of the turbo so they split and made 2, the sport and the non sport

did they ever do a model in that range with clear indicators? i think it would look alot better if you could get hold of some, i dont like the old fasioned orange.

^^ i like em

tho you can get aftermarket clear ones pretty cheap iirc

the only problem with the car is, those are alloys/tyres from a different model (tho there my fav. bit tbh) and there a but widter than the normal ones, so if you go round a corner fast on close to full lock with a few fasangers in, the tyre will rub on the inside of the wheel arch and make a noise..... tho theres plastic protectors in there, and there not getting worn down, so its fine by me, the spot on road holding and handerling is worth it

Heres me bike. Cleaned out the garden as hadnt done i since we moved here several months ago, with it being wet and cold an all.

Just get spacers and longer bolts!!

An excellent solution for destroying your hubs !

Not done one of these threads for a long time!

4 wheels:


Happy with it to be honest, its sooo cheap to run compared to the last one. I think Ive only filled it up 3 times since I bought it a few months ago


2 wheels:


I have a mountain bike in the garage, but Ive pretty much lost interest in getting muddy on 2 wheels since the above showed up. prefer going quickly :mrgreen: found a racing bike far more addictive than the MTB ever was.
