I think they look great in white too, are they going to be staying that colour?

Cheers mate :)

Well they will be getting a refurb pretty soon as I'm detailing a mates van and he does wheels refurbs.

I do really like them in white but don't know how they would look in a dark anthracite kind or colour..

What you reckon?
 
If you were stick with the white then I think a pearl white refurb would look good, gives a bit more depth to the colour.
 
looks really nice mate , just saying about the wheels , if you don't want to go for those brands bbs or cades eros look right up ther on clios , im saving for some gold cades eros with polished lip for mine , don't steal my idea ;) but google it an see if that's the look you want :)
 
Yeah I do like the white only reason I fancy something different colour wise is because my turbines were white too so not a lot of difference if you know what I mean.

I did think about some euro style wheels but not totally sure :/
 
So my car decided to nearly die on me this morning, blowing like f**k, eml flashing and pretty much no power :(

Done a bit of searching and could possibly be an injector?? Any other ideas?

Getting it plugged in at lunch to see whats what.
 
He's had it scanned, but he's away at the moment so waiting til he's back before any progress, as far as I aware scanner just picked up O2 sensor. But his down pipe was blowing before anyway so that needs sorting regardless. I'm sure Dave will update this tomorrow!
 
Basically been overfuelling which has caused the plugs to be knackered, since then on start up its been revving straight to 4k and staying there also used about 4 litres of water in about 3 days! Also while the engines been looked at they told me that alot of the bolts had been threaded or not been put back on correctly previously and basically said get rid before it ends up costing you a lot of money.

But im in love with the car and the bodywork/suspension/wheels/interior are all brilliant so i need a new engine to drop in and ill be happy :)
 
Well luckily is been looked at by a family member and his mate who both own garages and that's what they've both said.

Bit pissed off though had to cancel my trackday aswell :(
