Wicked mate, didn't think the Mono's were gonna happen but I'm glad they are! What size and what tyre size?
Well I'm on a special run lists waiting for another 14 people to join the list before Comp can do a run of 60 (individual) wheels a.k.a 15 sets.
I'm on the list for a set of TH1680 which are 8Jx16" ET25 and I'll be running 195/45 tyres

Pics pag Author: Ross, Location: West MidlandsPosted: Sun May 09, 2010 3:53 pm ---- Actually been catching my sump cover on the road today, purely due to it being a single track road with a bit of camber. I was miffed at first as to what the scraping noise was, then I got out and saw my front splitter was an inch off the deck
Anyway, I have some pics, no changes but I only had boring driveway pics so figured I needed some more scenic ones lol. So when Photobucket stops being ghey I'll get them up.

#144: Re: Ross' VW Lupo GTI - Wheels & Coilovers are on! Pics page 7 Author: Jamie, Location: Ring y0Posted: Sun May 09, 2010 4:52 pm ---- It is for sale technically yeah, because I have been offered a 207GTi at a very good price, but if not I'm perfectly happy to keep the 180!

The original plan was that me and 2 mates were gonna wash our cars, then have a bit of a photoshoot after. One of these who has a Mini GP Works had a change of plans so couldn't come, and then my other mate who has a mint S2000 had himself a nap, and didn't wake up 'til late on , so I decided I'd go for a drive and take some pics on my lonesome!
Then, as I talked about above, my car was bottoming out on a single track road, so took the opportunity to get some pics whilst I was out having a look:
Then, whilst waiting at a T-junction trying to decide which way to turn, a lovely Ferrari 360 Spider cruised past . Naturally I followed . Usually when I've seen supercars the owners are just driving them gently and I'm always slightly disappointed that they don't show off a bit and open them up. Not really the case today though, he wasn't going mad in it but he was doing enough so that I could hear that sweet engine note, he seemed a bit eager to plant his foot down in it . The noise was truly amazing, enough to give you goosebumps. We got into a town centre, narrow road with tall buildings either side, so it almost had the effect of a tunnel in that it amplified the noise, it was brilliant!
He did try and race me at one stage but I didn't want to show him up.

Yeah mate true! About time you got those TB's all fitted up and working
Not to sound harsh but I'm not surprised really, student houses like that must be a magnet for burglars, I know you said something similar before anyway when you were on about where Mark lives being a high burglary rate. Shame though, sorry to hear it.... scum.

May be a slight change of plan regarding the bodies, think less bodies, more boost/whine
I'll give you a bell when my exams are over, early june good for you? My garden, sunshine, BBQ, women, beer; sound good?

#150: Re: Ross' VW Lupo GTI - Wheels & Coilovers are on! Pics page 7 Author: Jamie, Location: Ring y0Posted: Sun May 09, 2010 5:18 pm ---- Ok I finish on the 3rd so either the 3rd or 4th, pin it in your diary x
