Nice car you've got there.

I'd make a recommendation, get yourself a cold air feed from eBay for your BMC, get things running more efficiently!

Tim what do you use to clean your engine? Also are those bottles and lids resprayed or new parts?

Can't find a bmc one on ebay, would a pipercross one work? Or a universal one?

Cheers.

Thank you.

Don't really want anything showing on the front bumper, where's best to put the other end of the air feed :?:

Put it where the original feed goes - into the drivers side wing. It gets a good feed of cold air there and is protected from water etc.

When picking the car up a few weeks ago, the previous owner said he had the spare key but it was at his parents house and he'd send it down to me, well after a phone call and text or 7 looks like he doesn't have it!!

Any idea's how much a new one would be? I guess its only a main dealer jobby also?! :oops:

Hello. Car's going into the bodyshop next week for a bit of a tidy up, when i get it back im stuck deciding what wheels to get :?

Put some pictures up of ones im keen on but cant really decide!

I know there the "usual suspects" that most polo's/lupo's seem to go for, but i do like them, plus dont want to spend much more than £600 on a set.

Stole all the pics from this site :wink:

Audi Pepperpots
Image

ATS Cups
Image

Standard BBS' Powdercoated
Image

Ronal Turbo's
Image

Lenso BSX

Comments/opinions/alternatives would be appreciated :|
Cheers, Chris.

Looking forward to seeing some pics of the car when its out of the bodyshop :)

The Audi pepperpots are only available in 5 stud (5x100) so you will need adapters if you decide to get a set.The good news is thier really cheap so you could probably get a set including the adapters for around £400, maybe less.

ATS Cups are always popular as are the RXII's and Lenso wheels.
Ronal LS & Turbo Wheels are both pretty popular too.

Good luck choosing 8)
