after the car was serviced had the windows done medium rear light fronts

then ordered my daughters recaro baby seat, she loves it lol. reccomend them to any1 with a child really well padded and comfy well worth the money

found some sxi/sri wheels local to me on ebay so collected them didnt think the exclusivs suited it


had a brand new radiator fitted, nipped along to vauxhall and had a mate fit it fresh coolant etc aswell

iv also had it decatted and a brand new backbox fitted but had a 3'' outward rolled tip welded onto it.
its getting lowered next week hopefully and getting a new droplink. probs be the last of the spending due to moving into my own place but will keep this up to date for when i sell it 
last pic of it at mine and the girlfriends new home

havnt updated in ages but here goes....
car stayed like the above for a while except i got a private plate for it for my birthday. it arrived 11th september so got it fitted straight away. woke up on 12th (my 21st) took a few stuff down to my place from my girlfriends dads and disaster struck !
had a huge flat spot for a few seconds then was fine, stopped at the lights car made a huge squeeling noise and clunk. cut out wouldnt even attempt to start so had it recovered. few people have said possible timing belt snapped so was car less for 2 days and spotted a 1.6 twinport sxi 53 plate local drove along and it was super clean ! so now i have a sxi just awaiting the logbook to come back for the green one then will transfer plate over and scrap the green one.
pics up later
