Fancied taking advantage of the sunshine today so went on a bit of a random drive with the girlfriend. Decided to head for Horseshoe Pass in Wales, and snapped a few pics whilst there. Unfortunately on the drive down there I got bombed by some bloody bird, so the front of my poor GT is covered in bird s**t
Here's the pics:


















Saw some pretty special cars on the way up the Pass too...
Orange Porsche GT3 RS

And one of these badboy's... An Ultima GTR... awesome.

Not sure mate, I was after a 106 GTi originally but couldn't find a decent one at the time, so I turned my attention to 206 GT's. I dare say the 106 would beat me, and probably offers a bit more of a 'raw' drive, but on the other hand I've got climate control and a much rarer car so I don't mind!

Yep, she's lovely 
I pretty much agree with you there on all points! Wheels are on the wish list, some lightweight 17's hopefully. As for the arches, I think the SP arches look a bit more beefy and brings the car more into proportion, but with it being a rare car I don't want to mess around with the bodywork too much! Loads of people have the SP arches, but not many have the GT arches!
Spoiler is also on the cards.

I have trouble with my front bumper catching as it is, at standard height . Multi-storey car parks and big speed humps can be a problem. Wheels will have to come before lowering I think!
Spoiler I'm wanting is an Ecosse one:

Not cheap though

I know what you mean about the Ecosse one price , only reason |I know is I had one on my 206 GTi when I bought it, then it got ripped off the car as well as my front grill when in Cardiff one evening, expensive trip to Cardiff and never did get another Ecosse spoiler

I got a WRC spoiler instead but probably going to take it off as I im off traveling and no point wasting money on the car, was looking to get GTi 180 alloys and fully colour coded and lowered and SP arches. Mines the same colour as yours spoiler wasnt much to spray if I remember

By WRC spoiler I assume you mean this?

Bit OTT for me I think! Although it does fit in with the rallying roots of the GT I suppose!
180 alloys are nice though, but I'll be wanting something with a bit of a dish/lip on, and probably black with a polished lip . White wheels would go with the rallying theme but then I don't think white wheels go well on a silver car
