Isn't this copyright? haha

Haha

Been a while since i took some snaps of the Fabia so heres some i took earlier.

Looks mint awesome photos too just seen them on club lupo aswell

Okay so on way to work this morning i had a pretty much flat tyre (was at 9psi) pumped it up and instantly heard air pissing out again. Whacked my spare wheel on and drove to work. Basically my point is im sick of these fking tyres. 165/40/16 on a 6.5j is a fking pain in the arse.

Gunna take em off and sell em and run steelies for a while until i find something different.

The Montreals with tyres are for sale. Ill check the flat tyre to see if its a puncture of if the tyre isnt seated properly as it did pop back on when i pumped it up this morning.

Offers welcome

If you've ran it flat, that might be the problem, it damages the side wall, you need a strong side wall for stretch to seal properly.

I had 2 blowouts on my Teledials from this!

Bloody hell :/ got a point with the strong sidewalls like...

Did you clean the inside of the rim down mate its a common problem on stretched tyres is the rim isn't clean it won't sit properly and will leak air aslong as the seal is good they'll stay up should give it a try dude

Just gunna sell them and run steelies.

30mm rear spacer adaptors for sale and 20mm hubcentric spacers with extended bolts also for sale.

That's the easy way out!!

Well as i was walking around the car when i parked up at work i noticed someone has clipped my car at some point on the front passenger side bumper, scratched deep and took the paint off. Not a happy bunny at all like. Give up with this peice of shite now.

Anyone know anyone selling standard Fabia suspension please let me know.

Wheels, Spacers, Coilovers, Front bumper for sale. Spread the word peeps

Well got a nice big bonus coming end of this month and also just banked another big bonus at end of June so iv 200% decided to get myself a newish BMW 1 series... and as ammunition as i know a lot of people say these are horrid heres an absolute stunner of a one on stanceworks. http://www.stanceworks.com/2012/11/heinous-crime-to-the-enthusiast-tony-lins-e87-1-series-5-door-hatchback/

Hoping to pick one up anywhere between £1,500 for a crash damaged one to £4000. Ideally the crash damaged one would be perfect if it hasnt sold by the end of the month as the money i save means i can invest in Air within a month of having it which would be quality.
CANNOT WAIT! to get back into this shiz!

You'll not regret it, love my 1 series

You got a 1 series as well?
Just hope its okay and not bent or anything with it being cat D

Yeah I have the new F20, SE spec with the 2.0 turbo diesel. It's a cracking car, had it since new last year and put almost 40k on it and its NEVER let me down.
In comparison my mk6 golf I had previously (also brand new and 2.0 TDi) doing the same kind of work within the year needed;

Boost pressure sensor (x2)
Engine speed sensor
EGR Valve
Lambda sensor & wiring
Comfort module
New clocks
New keys
Complete re-wire internally

BMW has needed

NOTHING

I wouldn't worry about it being cat D, it's usually just panel damage so it should be straight, although apparently the steering arms bend quite easily, so you might want to bear that in mind.

Cheers for the advice mate. Hope its still there at end of month when i get paid

Okay so this is the crack. That Cat D 1 series is bent as a ten bob note so im getting something else. Its still a BMW so dont worry however i KNOW some will not like my choice at all (not really bothered if im honest)
I have priced a 4 way manual air system up which i can get for £1,480 from Rayvern so as long as all goes well ill at least have the air bought and ready to fit in July.
Then its on a hunt for some wheels!

Okay so might as well announce the plans.

Im buying a BMW E46 compact. Not sure on the colour as the one i had my heart set on has sold but i have £2000 to play with so should be good to find a good one. Im picking it and buying whichever i pick on the 1st (day after payday).

Once i have the car on my next pay as i hit a huge bonus at work i AM getting air ride in June's pay and HOPEFULLY having it fitted when im in London with our lass on 8th and 9th July. Ill also be buying new rims in from Junes pay and have around £800-£1000 to play with on rims but if im honest i dont think theres any need to go nuts as theres some sweet genuine BMW rims all 18" for not a huge amount of money, nice refurb from somewhere like SEM and they will be sweet.

So yeah thats the crack, i know these BMW's aint everyones cuppa tea but i love them and cant wait to have the car sorted once i get it which will be sweet as it wont take long due to FINALLY having money to play with!

Look forward to it bmws are very grown up like lol

Haha not as grown up as our lass wants me to be. She not best pleased with me buying a 3 door BMW she wanted a big saloon one but balls to that, they are modded all the time, compacts (coz they ugly) aint modded too much

Hahaha it's all about compromise man it's bigger therefor more practical it's going on air can't think of a car that wouldn't be cool on air am sure you'll be onto a winner

Hmmmmm may have changed my mind.....
