Im gonna get one just to piss you off now :tongue:

Nah seriously, I want this car to last a few more years (but how many it will manage at 30k a year I don't know) so that when I move out and closer to work, I can have this as a runaround then get something new to keep nice. I can dream eh? :tongue:

Gave it a nice coat of wax in prep for winter, will be doing a few more coats over the next few weeks as and when I get the time :)

Be handy if I had a garage that I could keep it in and just do loads spread over 2/3 days where it won't get dirty and need washing again over night :sad:




If I had got to bed a bit earlier tonight then I had planned on lowering the coilovers some more, however I will likely spend the majority of the day sleeping now :rolleyes:

Sooo, lowered the front some more, only about 2cm I think, maybe a bit more. Still about 8-10mm left to go however it was scraping the bumper on the floor on a bumpy road as it was :( I ran out of degreaser before I did the rear though, so will have to do that in the week :sad: Drives a hell of a lot nicer now for some reason :huh:

Nice fresh waxoyl:
