Took delivery of ours on Dec 27th. 1.5tsi DSG SE-L 5 seat Black metallic Full leather Pretty sure that was it. Very pleased with it despite the wait, it's a very nice upgrade after 3x Yeti 1.2tsi SE's in all areas! Only just fits on our small 'drive' but plenty of space for two children and car seats/pram etc. May get driven to Spain next year and should be perfectly capable of swallowing everything recquired!

If they could pinch the S1 engine and running gear and make an estate version it would be a real niche but it's never going to happen.

It's your car mate do what you want! I don't know what the exhaust system is like on your car but getting rid of a silencer will make it a lot louder, you won't get proper bangs without a de-cat which is not technically illegal afaik but will not pass an mot!

I was looking for some tuning threads on some other forums the other week to no avail. I can't remember where it was but I found some guys thread about supercharger mods, he wanted to change the pulley like the Cooper S boys do. Turns out the eaton made charger is a roots type and all the internals would need changing or something along those lines and didn't really go anywhere a bit like this post

Nice car mate! I like the white on white!

Do these things not just suck in more hot air from the engine bay? I've only ever had them on n/a cars before and apart from the noise they were a bit pants tbh. I've never had a boosted car before so pardon my ignorance

Awesome looking car mate, I love the bonnet and I want your wheels! Do you mind disclosing how much they were? I like the idea of a custom fit/width!

The cut out solution is a bit extreme but switchable exhausts are the ideal. Finding a more enthusiast friendly mot centre could be easier!

Must resist..

It's nothing exciting! http://www.cliosport.net/forum/showthread.php?752175-The-Sensible-182-Replacement-Fabia-VRS-Estate

Thanks for the pics Ally! That looks 100% better than stock ride height! I've pinched one pic -.hope you don't mind, I'm going to post it on Cliosport to counter all the 4x4/arch gap comments I am getting

Nice build thread Ally, definitely a few things I shall be looking into! Have you got any side-on shots of the car with the H&R springs fitted? I have only seen them on a hatchback (which I think sit a tad lower?).

Thanks mate, I'm trying to resist the urge to lower just yet but it does need it! The A414 is where I think I picked up the stone chip! F@cking quarry and it's bloody trucks, I use it on my route to work. I'm normally over at WGC twice a week at 1RM (gym) so I'll keep my eyes peeled!

I've only had her for 4 days and already have a big stone chip and micro dent on the bonnet. At least I got the chance to giver her a good polish & wax yesterday!
