So now i have a puppy,i decided to remove the rear seats and fit a boot mat & cargo boot net.The rear seats never get used anyway,so makes sense being we have a dog now.So works out well for days out & will still look cool and neat.
I decided to get the proper 172 cup badged one as was only £5...
Little update,well just photos.Mark @Dr Jekyll & Will popped over to mine yesterday & mark took a couple of just random photos of the cup & i really like them.
Sorry lads ive only just noticed these last few comments,some reason no notification or just missed it,thanks very much 😀 @Ricardos @frayz
@dylan172 The ET of the wheels are 38 and have 10mm shims on the rear with 16mm on the front.
So last Sunday a group of us went to the cool Caffeine & Machine for the day,we also had a Photographer on route with us to get some cool rolling shots & still photos.
Awesome photos,check out his instagram @reversed_photography

But as usual a simply job never goes easy to plan.The power terminal loop to the...
So for my Birthday me & the girlfriend went for week in Scotland.The Cup ran faultless,only trouble was finding a Station that sold Super Unleaded?
And of course i got a few photos of the Cup while up there.
Cant wait for the weekend in Wales now with a few of the lads in Sept off the forum??
195/50/15 & depends on what you can afford i guess as Rainsports & PS3's are both good tyres for the rain/winter.
What other soft/summer road tyres are there like the AD80R's?
Just a quick Bump/Reminder its getting close to the Wales Road trip Weekend for anyone else wanting to join us,even if just for a day.
Little taste of a road in Snowdonia ?
