Sorry and thanks! I always tend to use picture hosting links so I don't use up precious space on forums. :wink:

Well in the three weeks I have had it:

TT wheels, new tyres, wheel alignment etc.

Full service at Midland VW

New head unit

Aero/Lupo wipers - thanks for the discount link

Uprated headlight wiring loom and bulbs

Plenty of cleaning - Meguiars 3 stage

12 months tax

 

Coilovers are next on the list.

....and they are now one! Went for FK AKs as they were within my budget. Also had new front top mounts, rear discs/pads/wheel bearings and new front to rear brake lines and rear brake flexi hoses at the same time. It also made 188bhp on Midland VWs rolling road so I am happy with that.

Nice motor mate 8)

 

Good choice of mods, the FK AK suspension is seriously underated, I had them on my motor after std suspension and they were worh every penny!

Not wishing to criticise, but I reckon another 10mm off the fronts and then it will sit about right. Seems to sit slightly too high at the front end in that last pic.

 

It's not easy getting the ride height just right, and the springs may yet settle a little more anyway. :)

It has only done about 50 miles since the coilovers were put on. You are right, it needs to settle and then I will adjust.
