On Saturday about 1ish. I was driving towards the city centre through Gilmerton. Spotted coming the other way, Mk2 Dark blue (think Ph1 and non-RS) with some kind of kit on it and being driven by a blonde burd.
The guy who had it before me and basically spunked the cash on it to make it look like that put in a 172 interior (seats are still RSi standards tho) so I guess the gearknob could be a 172 bad boy. I've since changed it to a nice carbon/silver mesh one and it wasn't too hard to change. Just...
Don't know what colour but my mate was racing it in what he describes as his 'all conquering' Golf GTi and was very impressed that it was a tad fast for him to keep up with!!
A long shot but anyone here from Dubai with a V6'er?
The ibiza Cupra TDi is only 0.3 secs 0-50 slower than its petrol counterpart and is quick in anyones book and if you can actually notice the difference then you have some kind of extra sensory perception. If a clio is loaded up with yer mates then the diesel will leave it for dead. What does it...
That looks like the bad boy. I just saw it on passing along Seafield Road and just assumed it was the Carzone kit which houses the quad exhaust, glad its not!
Sitting across the road and down a wee bit from the servicing/workshop of Renault Reg Vardy.
Dark Blue full body kit and V6 rally spoiler, think it may have been the Carzone kit with the quad exhaust. Door bump strips painted silver and large 5 spoke silver alloys, 17's by the look of them.
Try topping up the power steering fluid. Mine makes a a helluva noise when turning if the levels get low, especially when I start the beast up in the morning!!
This morning was following Blue 172 Cup from Leith Walk, out Seafield and down Sir Harry lauder rd out towards Newcraighall. As it came off the roundabout at ASDA cut from the right lane into the left and undertook another Clio, tut tut then cut back in front of it, blasted up the outside for a...
In the car park at the sports centre last night.
One Ph2 Black 172 with 172 cup wheels on it.
The other a black 182 with anthracite wheels on it I think, doing a circuit of the car park then heading off.
Parked near Cessnock underground on Saturday afternoon. Blue 172 Cup it looked like with the cup wheels but had the twin 182 exhaust so not sure if it was a 182 with the cup wheels or just a 172 cup with 182 exhaust. Nice an shiny tho.
Those Toyos are rank rotten, especially in the wet, worse than Yoko A539's and thats saying something! I've had both on 17's, currently running the Toyos on the rear due to a supplier mix up and I had no choice but to put them on at the time, got them half price though!
Hankook Ventus Sports...
1) Red kitted Mk2 Ph1 172 (?, not sure had sport badges on it tho), tints and alloys. Was heading south about to turn right at the roundabout to head down passed Queen Margaret Academy. Think it was being driven by a burd.
2) Silver, Mk2 Ph2 non-RS just approaching the 'royal mail van'...
Top Gear did an episode quite a while ago now with the Williams 002, explaining what had happened to the number one car ie. Mr Williams crashed it. So Must have been rebuilt then cos Franky boy totalled it a while ago. Hopefully he took the appropriate steps to declare it as the correct...
Spotted last night, 5.45pm, coming from Constitution St through the traffic lights heading up Leith Walk.
Silver Mk1 172, pretty low and lexus rears. Standard Wheels I think but I was along Duke St so it kinda flashed across my path me pretty quick.
Spotted last night, around 6.45pm.
Heading on to Princes Street from the east end. Clean looking motor, W-reg, nice multi-spoke alloys, probably 17s, and with lexus rear clusters.
....due to being packed to the rafters with folk! ;)
Saturday around midday sitting at traffic lights on Queensferry Road, just opposite Maccy D's, heading eastbound.
Around 5.15pm ish heading eastbound at charing X junction, passed a Mk2 Ph2 silver clio, lexus lights, alloys, zorst etc, with a couple of blokes in it.
Further on just before J2, passed a Blue cup, just had a wash I think and possibly new tyres as they were well shiny :D
