Did you go down a wheel size to increase tyre sidewall ? Are you fitting spacers ?

Yea, I've gone from 20s to 17s, going for the lowered swamper look. I dont think I'll be fitting spacers but will decide when there on.

Nowhere near as exciting as new wheels, but my roof rails and cross bars arrived today. Will fit at the weekend.

Any new parts day is a good day in my book

Bought another one of these for the van.
I had one in the car already for about 5 years and figured it would be Sod’s law that I would need it and it would be in the other vehicle.

Always found it reliable.

Fast Only Rolling Downhill

Found On Road Dead

 

[JOG]

These landed during a conference call courtesy of @Texxaco so I can crack on with his open door warning light mod! I was hoping he’d include a wee pack of Haribo, but so such luck!

Added this Mk2 GTI to the fleet this weekend.

We have a few subtle plans for it - watch this space

I do like a Mk2. My first one was an 8V too, and they're not as sluggish as people like to make out.

Strange mileage goings on on yours between 07 and 08 tho'

I always liked the Ring products. They were the “cheap and cheerful” of their day.....but always kept going!!

I had 2 up 2 down Ring Rally Giant spotlights back in the day. They were bloody good lights to be fair. I wanted Hella's tho' so sanded down the covers and hand painted the Hella logo on with black Humbrol.
