Looking good mate. What spoiler is that? Mines in desperate need for one. They look bald without!

My first car was a satin silver five door V5 (10v), so this thread brings back some memories!

I’ve been toying with getting another one for ages, but the one I really want is the R32 (awesome bodykit, lots of small unique details to the interior etc, although not fussed about the engine).
Shame they’ve shot up in price so much, and a lot look in poor condition too

So bit of a update today won a jom front splitter already spray the right colour which makes the front end look more aggressive and lower.trying to sort out my rims got some brand new Porsche reps that I had on my Audi but they are 5x112 and with adapters will catch on the arch which is a shame so looking to swap them for some nice 5x100

Sorry to hear that mate power wise 150 is ok but with a remap and some mods hoping for 240
Thanks.. Yeah, it was a bad way to go. 10 years ago next year, how time flies.. But i just recall it feeling stronger than 150 hp and quite torqey and i had an evo at the time. The leather interior was also really plush.

I used to have the same TT alloys on mine, I think they're a great compromise as they look OEM(+), are a decent size without looking overly big, they suit the car and are easy to clean.

Otherwise you can't go wrong with BBC CHs, go for an Anni look?

looking good fella, i used to love mine.

I've still got some (5door) custom skirts and a smoothed read bumper with separate diesel anni valance. All in reflex silver.

If your anywhere near Peterborough (home) or Watford (work) you can have a look if you want.
