I like it but think it's just a bit too low on the rear compared to the front?

Quite rare in white, looks good, although if it was mine I'd lose the rear badge and stick some black raptors on it  what future plans do you have for it?

Used to have morettes?
I mailed the guy on p/h a week or so ago to see if he fancied a swap for my valver.

yeah had moretts, i sold them though as i did not think they suited the car and i needed money haha,
only problems ive had so far are when its warm the hydrolic lifters (tappets) are very very tappety so after christmas im gonna either replace them. but touch wood apart from that its been fine.

Quite a common thing on them i think, looks smart, id love a white one, with gloss black bumper inserts and black wheels. Dont really like those wheels, but like you say, your thinking of changing them.
Looks smart anyway

Looks nice mate, agreed that the boot badge could do with coming off.
What do raptors look like?

Ah right I'm not such a fan of those. I like 205 GTi or 306 gti6 wheels on these.

yeah i will raise the rear when its a bit better weather lol, and i was thinking either rapters or vts wheels in gunmetal or black. and yes the badge on the back is coming off, this is just how i got the car and ive been working a lot so i have had no time to change anything exept the moretts.

This is what I was thinking. Needs sorting as it looks a little odd.
The rest is nice though

Really like the look of that.
I reckon the wheels could look ok on it,think it just needs a good wash.

I like that, as others have said raise the rear a tad, which should make the front go down a tad too. I think if the OZ's were gunmetal it would look awesome

205 wheels are a good choice, got mine dirt cheap off a mate though and I needed them for the gti6 brakes, they look great on a GTI.
