I've had to replace the driveshaft on drivers side, new anti-roll bars. Current issues are split front exhaust pipe which i'm trying to get hold of replacement as it consists of the Cat aswell, and also i need a new HUB or wheel bearing for the drivers side also. But all in all not bad for £990 for saying its 02plate with 86000.
I'm from swadlincote area, where bouts are you VTR_Craig.
No plans really will see what happens when i get issues sorted, but has the alloys and lowered with a jetex cat back system on it.

Yeah i think it was you then mate, The cupra's quick but it only does 2-3mpg when u boot it. I thought it was blowing when i herd it, Im thinking about buying the supersprint track system, used to run 1 on my 106 they sound great.

I thought of welding it cuz i put a temp bandage seal on it but it disintegrated the bandage and split open and now the centre is detatched from the front pipe. New pipe should be here soon.
