Looking as good as ever mate, cant believe how much you have improved it from when you got it!

Best GTi rep going imo.

And here's the hat-trick it's 3-0 I too think this is a very lush GTi rep. What tyres do you find best the Toyo Proxies? I'm getting 2 new tyres for my 14s and stuck between Uniroyals and the Toyos, they (£60 and £58 each respectively -all in fitted etc).

Did you do the vinyl on the B-pillars yourself or get a specialist to do it? I can imagine it being a bit tricky...

Let us know how that goes. I'd like a black/ silver Rover Mini MPi one but they are uber rare and very expensive.
