Did a little session on @craigyt 's 850 today. I absolutely love this thing! Pure 90s

As most of you know, I have had a few cars but never had a v8. I've always wanted one so have decided to opt for the vxr8. 48k miles with full history. It's also the auto version which I wouldn't have touched 5 yrs ago but now I love - it just be an age thing. Anyway, some pics;

Had a small session on our kids transporter today. I really love this van! Lowered on gaz coilovers and on 19 inch banded steels.

Few pictures of my mates 330d after I did a little session on it. Really love these, even with the auto box it's silky smooth and quick too!

I'm wanting to get some tunes going on in the Volvo but I have no real knowledge of stereo. I've got an upgraded head unit which is a 4 x 50w job. My front speakers are the standard 5.25 door speakers and that's about it. It doesn't sound that bad but I want more. I'm considering some...

Did a little cleaning session on Phils new MPS yesterday and today. I quite like the car, really quick top end and would make a nice practical daily. The car had some kind of sealant on but the paint was rough to the touch. What I did - spray with pre clean stuff, rinse, snow foam, rinse, two...

Had a ride out tonight with Phil in his mk2 Saxo turbo and Craig in his boosted Rallye. Was a great night for a drive and took a few pics between us.

Thought I'd start a thread for any pictures anyone might of taken at CSF16. Apologies that mine are heavily sax laden but it was my pal who was taking them. Really enjoyed the day as always and many thanks to admin for sorting it.

The evos replacement has arrived in the shape of this mk1 Saxo Vts! Here's a few pics I've taken after getting it home. Can't drive it until tomorrow when I can swap the insurance over.

After 10 months or so the Evo sold today to the first viewer (as always). Massive amounts of interest in the car and looked great as it drove away!

Firstly apologies for the links but here's a picture I took of my old cup a few years ago. And here is a for sale advert by dtm cars. https://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/252374715140 This wouldn't be that bad if I didn't know that the car in the picture was broken for parts around two years ago...

Our kid recently bought this vr6. It's the auto version which is pretty terrible at first but not that bad when you get used to it. All the usual cleaning stuff that I'm not going to bore you with but these are the results. I'm pretty happy with how it came out.

Been on the look out for something so I didn't have to run the Evo on daily duties. I was hoping to buy my pals 240 but that never happened so have been on the look out for something for a few weeks. I saw this on the trader, service history and importantly a full mot. It's the 2.3 high...

Since my last Volvo opportunity fell by the way side I find myself looking for other Volvo estates constantly. This one has come up. Not quite as retro as the 240 but I still think it's cool. My wife is absolutely against it to the extent that it could put my marriage in jepoadry if I bought...

Got the option to buy this. It's massive. Slow. Bad on juice but I love it. Just got to convince the wife! Any love?

I need a new one but I find it all very confusing! My last two have been Panasonic viera things and are still going strong! When upgrade I tend to move the old one to another room in the house. I want 50 inch plus and the budget is £800-£900 ideally. looked at this one in currys and liked it...

Just been with my pal to pick up his new 135i. It was a private deal against his 370; Got the chance to drive it a bit on the way back and loved it. Ive heard them get a bad press before but I certainly wouldn't mind one if I had the money. This one had the m sport exhaust on which sounds ace...

My pal from work dropped his 370z around for me to give the once over before hopefully selling. I've never driven one and initially wasn't that impressed but once you give it some it really does pick up. Pretty happy with how it turned out.

I've been looking for a new winter daily for a while as the Evo is off the road for the winter and the silver 182 was sold. Never really considered a Leon but the more I looked at them the more it made sense (I've got three kids so the four dOors are great). I decided I wanted a Cupra r with...

I was really tempted by this for the retro cruise lolz of it. That was until the seller told me his buy it now price - £1750! http://www.ebay.co.uk/ulk/itm/331693039817

Yeah baby!

Before I potentially purchase some coilovers for the 182 can someone please have a look at these pictures. I've done a search and have come to the conclusion that I have the cup suspension but just want to confirm. Ps I hope these are the pictures of the right part!

Such a great colour when clean and in the sun! http://s2.photobucket.com/user/leeds_182/media/18EEB644-07BF-440D-81CB-C75EF0B09712_zpsv7lhelqj.jpg.html][/URL]

Back in a 182 - how predictable! As much as I like my mk4 wagon it was just not a drivers car so it had to go and should be going at the weekend. I obviously still have the Evo but made the decision to keep it garaged over winter so therefore needed something to run around in. I Saw Matthew...

What do we think of this one? http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=271964818859&globalID=EBAY-GB Went to see it tonight. Belts due now, depahser pulley noisy, different tyres all round, head lights need sorting and wear on the drivers bolster.

This one a forum car? http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=301719165667&globalID=EBAY-GB Can't help but feel it would've been better if it was left alone.

Made my annual trip to the VW festival this year. It was pretty busy but I found myself bored after 3hrs. Took some pics. The 3dsm seat / scirocco boys were out in force but there was still some cool stuff. Also nice to see the Rado again.

Well, after a couple of failed eBay attempts I've now got four cars which are currently all taxed and insured. I've got the a4 which the wife uses everyday which will be staying; I'm in a bit of a situation as I don't want to run the evo over winter so could do with keeping the golf for...

Continuing my 'you only get one life' approach to car buying I have bought my new toy! 1999 Evo 6 80k No history from before it came to the UK but since it arrived in 2011 it has been dry stored and maintained by the same Evo specialist CPP. Went to look at the car and it was at a nice house...

Drove past this today just outside malton on my way to the Yorkshire modified car show at Pickering. Looks like the driver gave it some beans off the roundabout but binned it. The rozzers were just turning up.
