Very nice and fair play to you, there won't be too many of those bought here.

Absolutely lovely looking car CH. I love the colour combo!

When do you pick her up?

Make sure they don't lose the towing eye cover!

Best of luck with her!

Is the grille active or is it fully sealed up? Hard to tell from the pics.

Got 4 new tyres and a set of alloys for the Levin. The old Advan RG2's were starting to peel and some asshole stopped in the middle of the road about 2 years ago after a blind corner and I jammed the brakes and slid slightly into the kerb so one alloy is kerbed. The old picture below is a old pic so alloys didn't look as good as they do in that pic. The old wheels were 195/45/16 and I decided to go down to 15's for the new set.

Very tasty, I'd still love a Levin. I have a real soft spot for them.

I have it a long time, coming up to 4 years ownership in early May. It's the longest car I ever owned. It's also the first car I ever changed a timing belt on. It's not actually that bad to do them but I wouldn't be rushing out to do another.

Ahh man a Levin. Haven't seen one in the flesh in ages. Always liked them.

I did similar Wotz. Have a set of OEM 16's that it came with, but years back got a set of Euro 15's which look identical(have a third set of US/EK9 R 15" rims for winter tyres. Cos I'm mad). Well our roads aren't nearly as smooth as Japanese roads and 15's gave me far more tyre choices and much cheaper for the same model tyres with it. Years back I was offered a set of Spoon wheels, but thought I'm not paying that, but looking back they were a bloody bargain...

I hadn't either until yesterday which is a bit of a coincidence. Some guy was up in ticknock with one and a mountain bike. Looked well but didn't stop as I was with the girlfriend for a walk.

Was going to post a few snaps I got of my own but I realise this morning that she's standing in the background looking bored!

ELM327

The Saab that I got as a trade in when selling the Tesla.
She's a lovely bus, 1.8T badged but it's actually a 2.0t. Surprised myself but this is the best vauxhall insignia I've ever driven



Have the NCT appointment this afternoon.

(EDIT: I should add that it came from another boardsie! First time I've "bought" a car from a boardsie and second one I've sold to a boardsie, that I didnt know beforehand anyway)

Sparco Assetto Gara? I'm so tempted to pick up a set in 16" for my mx5 ND. How do you find them? Also do you mind me asking where you bought them?

I'm looking about 750 sterling from wheelbase including Toyo TR1s... Probs get stung with import tax though

Picked up this beauty last week...

Is that a lump of filler?

Edge of bonnet looks orange-peely too?

It’s a formentor and to be pedantic seat split out the brand so cupra is a range on its own.

I honestly thought it was a really smart looking CX-5 on first look


Really cool car after a google, is it the 306bhp one?

traco

Cupra have some really nice designs, have to give them credit.

1.5TSI 150bhp. The Cupra brand is different now doesn’t necessarily mean the car will have a big powerful engine like it would of before.

Correct , I bought this one as a family car so went with the 1.5 TSI as it made sense for me and was reasonably prices...they have plenty of engine options though in the range there's...

* Mild Hybrid 1.4 TSI + Electric 204 HP
* Hybrid - All electric 250 HP
* 2.0 - 306 HP
*(Coming) Audi 5 Cyl 390 HP

Few Diesel options as well

New to me this week. Tesla Model S 90D. Pics just after a full valet

Bit of a clean up on the Gtd. First black car I’ve owned and it looks great for the 10 minutes or so directly after a wash. After that it’s like it wasn’t washed. Very happy with the car overall though.

The daily meets the weekender finally. Its amazing how much I love both in different ways.
