I think I've done a STUNNING job at restoring the aftermath of a pheasant (or 8) untangled from my bumper ;

High tech professionally installed boost gauge ;

Professionally crafted screws (I think off an antique book shelf) used to secure
the boost gauge catering to that oh-so-high PSI ;

Thanks, me-tm  I wouldnt use that word, but thanks!
Piggy, its (apparently) from a 106GTi Rallye, stitched leather. I prefer skinny wheels 100% over modern chunky things.
Can I point out - I also f*cking HATE those alloys.... Hence my wanted thread. But, they do the job so cant justify forking out a heap for new wheelies.

Yes mate, see I couldn't agree more, I just cant tell whats the fine line between sleeper-rally-because-racecar -or- looking like my hub caps fell off..

That driveway and 205 look familiar, are you a relative of Max/Eli/Ginge.
Also is that Phils/Sams car? again looks familiar.
As with what piggy says C5 steels would be the way forwards

I think its a combination of those crappy tyres, crappy alloys and the fact that the rear beam is still vanilla.
Its down 40mm at the front on GTi6 shocks..
