Hi I've been on here for a while but never really had any thing to post about only having a 1.2 8v lol. But having to travel a long way to work and back I decided a diesel would be good I also liked the ideas of a 1*2 replica so when I saw this for sale locally I had to have it here are some pictures off my 1.2 which I fitted a sport interior to

And now the new one one the way home

And before I removed the yellow from dogs and fly eyes stuff off rear lights

And now I know it needs spacers

Really like that. Looks tidy
What coilovers are on it?
What size of spacers you thinking of?

Thanks mate , not sure what coilovers they are as haven't had had a chance to get it up in the air to look yet , not sure really think I need 20mm on front a and I might not bother on the back ,

Sits nice like, Ill give you the heads up on spacers though,
Im running 25mm spacers all round with 195 45 15 tyres on et 37 7j alloys

To begin with i had problems with scrubbing on the rear arches, literally ruined tyres on the back. The way i solved this was slightly flaring the rear arches, hammered in the arch inner lip and fitted 1.5 camber shims.

20mm hopefully shouldnt cause scrubbing mate but in not 100% positive.

Okay thank you ,will just try 20mm on the front for now then, cause it's driven on a lot of B roads and I can't be bother to but up with scrubbing especially not if it's gonna ruin my paradas ahha

Oops should of said bhp engine. They did a 65, 80 and a 100bhp engine

Oh right yh it's a 65 but it's plenty enough being my first car and with the suspension ,tyre combo it will surprise a lot of people in the bends anyway ahah

Looking good, love those wheels:up:. I plan on doing a dci rep sometime soon. Heard you can get decent gains out of these dci's

go wide track and don't worry about spacers. That way you'll get better brakes as well.

Do love a monaco rep!

Thanks , yh I think the wheels are either love or hate tbh but will look better once there filling the arches properly

Would love to go wide track just can't really afford to tell the insurance about it at the moment ahah
