Thanks guys... Spec list is still growing, but has gotten to that point in less than a month. Car was bought completely standard with just the Janspeed System, OMP brake pads and RGM Bonnet Vents.
Unfortunately there is only a couple of pics of the build for the centre console but it was completely custom designed and built in-house. The top, double din conversion is a Connect2 kit they did at the start of last year which just fitted poorly and was far too big. So after a lot of cutting (both off the height and width) and fibreglassing it is how it stands all wrapped up.

Thanks Iain... worry not though, I have new wheels on the way, and the MAMs are only temporarily. My old PR1's were sold because I had them catching on the rear arches when I had passengers in the rear.

I think they're the same wheels as Diane Paterson, boss of Ecosse, had on her 106.
Even had a space saver made to match.

They are indeed. These have been taken off my SW to use temporarily while I went back on the hunt for a new set of wheels in 16s.

Looks nice mate, not really a fan of sc3n3 rims on a sporty car but with the Team D's then we are talking!
Good idea with the 180 engined VTS discs, were they a straight fit with std 180 pads?
Looking good!

Thanks mate... not a fan of the wheels on the 180 myself tbh... look nice but do the car no justice. Handling is p**s poor and the car just doesn't feel like what it did on my old Pro Races.
Yeah, going off what Mattie said when he had a C4 VTS brake setup, the calipers and carriers are exactly the same with the GTI 180 pad and then it's literally just the discs that are bigger.

I've added a link to my facebook album where the entire progress blog is currently.
The link is in the opening post so feel free to check it out and see what the cars developed into since I've owned it.
The link is available to be viewed by the public... feel free to comments and criticise on here.
I am writing the Progress Blog properly (on word and then post as one piece) but it's going to take a while lol so please bare with me.
