Done a couple of things to the car since my last post in here, swapped the 205/40 tyres for 195/40's. Was after a tyre with a little more grip and 205/40's just didn't have the choice available.
Also had a new wheel arch fitted as my old one was snapped so didn't fit flush, as well as chrome centre caps for the wheels and chrome nuts.
Unfortunatley I had the dreaded brake servo leak which meant my carpet was piss wet through, couldn't be bothered putting it back in so cut it up and threw it away. So the car now has no carpet/sound deadening it all. It's noisy inside.
Oh, and a picture Fueled Society took at Malton's Big Breakfast meet this morning.

Thanks Nath! You really think? I wasn't struck on the stretch at first but quite like it now!
I'll try get pictures, though I'm the worst for it as I never really take pictures of my car.

Think they look a lot nicer now with the new caps and nuts!

The rear tyres were absolutely shredded. Front never really rubbed as I don't have much wheel arch left, most of it has rubbed away.
I feel honoured Nath.

It hasn't yet, I'm hoping to get out this year but a little nervous about it if I'm honest!
