Myself and Hanna are getting a new motor.
She had promised herself something new once she was finished her nurses training and i'm always wanting something new
I love it cos it looks like a diesel yet goes like stink! 180bhp, 6 speed box etc etc
Anyone want a nice ph2? |

A wolf in sheeps clothing!
Nice cars, although I'd prefer the Cupra on looks - but they're all the same when your sat inside!
You going to leave it alone or is it going to be 'Chetted' ? |

It will mostly be her car so i think the only modification that will be done is hanging her halfords air freshner in it!
Cupra is ncer but as you say its a wolf in sheeps clothing, it was here 3 weeks before i even took a second look at it! |

it was a 54 plate and it was a few months old, he was caning it somethign else. Like I said it pulled away easily below a ton but after that i was on him then past him.
I waved at his mrs as I passed, she smiled he wasn't happy! lol
clipped the limiter twice in 5th that day. |

I don't like them, it looks like i new front on a dated car. Like those first daewoos with the roundy front on the old astra and belmonts lol!
Anyway, ones a 2 door coupe and the other a 5 door hatch, you can hardly compare! |

Why not get a 1.6 badge?
My 2.0 16v badge was £4 from Seat, can't see the 1.6 badge being any more! |
