Following the tradition of buying a new car every 6 months, I've decided to replace my daily as I have had enough of the Focus.

My mate had just put a deposit down on his new car, so offered me his for a mega deal, so I went for it

Petrol or Derv?

I'd like the PD160 myself, but I bet the 180 petrol is nippy too.

EDIT - or is it an FR PD130 or 1.8 150? I can't tell any more.

My uncle had a remapped Labia running similar and it was very nippy.

This is a 'stage 2' (mapped with the FMIC and exhaust) but with a standard clutch, so is a little slippy in higher gears

Sc0ot on here had a PD160 Cupra, and hated it. Felt like a cheap car, with super stiff suspension. Went very well though.

Yours looks pretty good, suits the Monty 2's.

I had an FR and the suspension was terrible, Fabia was put together much better.

Standard suspension is rubbish, hard, crashy and just generally crap. This has FK coilovers on, bit harder than the Weitecs I had but it could be to do with it being lower

Always liked these. Red is the best colour too.

I think the wheels suit it perfectly, though I'd remove the VW badges.
