I wanted a SRi-T for a long loooong time but they haven't come down in price as much as I'd hoped they would after the VXR's released - GSi-T's still go for a bucket of cash (although I prefer the SRi-T to the GSi-T anyway)
I love the read leather, ever since I saw a TT with red leather I've loved it, maybe the interior doesn't quite match the exterior colour but it is a fairly dark blue (almost black) so it's not too bad.
Been showing the pics to some people at work as the reaction to the interior pic seems the same wherever you go - some love it (like me), some don't, but it's going to be in my car so I'm happy

FUCK YEAH!!!
Well I bought it! I love it!
I couldn't hear any cam chain related noises but from looking through the history/recepits there is no proof that the larger oil nozzle has been fitted - I guess that's a job for the near future.
I'm a bit disappointed that there seems to be no sign of a fuel computer (or at least I can't see how to use one if it is present - the buttons on the indicator stalk only seem to operate the cruise control) considering it is a ex-Vauxhall demonstrator, but I have since found that it has a full Irmy sports suspension setup which is a nice bonus
The CD multichanger has stopped working so any help with that would be appriciated (thread HERE) but apart from that I love it to bits - the novelty of sneekily turning on your passengers heated seats without them knowing will take a while to wear off!
Future plans aren't too drastic - fit a GSi-T front bumper and get the stone chips on the front addressed and fit some Vaux/Irmy 17's somewhere down the line, but I'm not in any hurry at all as I love it how it is at present!
I paid £3500, 2000 (W), 2.2 16v, 70k miles with FSH, (heated) red leather interior, air con, cruise control, Irmy cross hatch grill, Irmy brused alu gearknob, full Irmy sports suspension, Irmy boot spoiler - all in very good condition, a few scratches/stone chips but you'd expect that with a 7 year old, 70k car.
I love it loads!
