Tiny Update.
Done some research and the rub strips were an optional extra ... which most people didnt take because they look, well shit.
Anyway took my depo's from the more door.
Comparison, standard to depo.
Then Before:
And after..
Also my local club organised a car meet, just one pic of mine from the night.
Also had pics from our RR day and will upload them when i find them.

Been a while since i updated but not alot has happend anyway.
Fitted my Alpine Headunit which is awesome
charges my iphone and even has small screeen that shows the album art.
Also the documents came through from the DVLA this morning.. ( about time )
Which means i could finally put my Private Plate on from the more door.
No Plate
With Plate
Then the sun was out so gave the car a quick rinse...

ofcourse you can ask why
thanks for the positive comments btw, next time you see me introduce yourself
theres nothing wrong, what so ever with the car, but there are a few reasons, 1, im only 18 and renewal is in april, with the way things are going im scared to see my next insurance quote, but then 2. i wouldnt mind something newer and more comfortable.
i also miss modifying. i used to love tinkering with my old 5 door but i can bring myself to do it with this
definately come introduce yourself when you next see me, or drop me a pm.

Car is really mint, couldnt bring myself to sell it, if it were mine! Have to see what money ive got when you sell it, would be seriously interested if ive got the sort of money your looking for, and it isnt that much of an insurance hike over mine.

Good stuff for keeping it standard, looks exactly how it should do. Dont worry, one day your insurance will become cheap. Im 21 and paying £800 fully comp on a Ibiza FR with 160bhp
