I got the dead flies cleaned off it for Loughgall today since the weather forecast was good.
No updates other than that I am eyeing up a set of Clubsport S brake discs as I believe they are a direct fit.
They are indeed a straight fit.

We put revo onto one of these recently and it was shockingly fast afterwards, a proper sleeper, I was surprised myself

Wait till you are bored of it, this particular chap was about to buy a new car as he was bored, the software changed his mind fully and we have a milltek cat-back sitting waiting to go on too :grinning:

I had nothing much on yesterday so took a run down to Castlewellan to see what was about. Reached 41mpg on the journey back home too, which was pretty impressive :eek:

Small update.
Coded in the alternating pace car indicators to my mk7 tonight. Looks quite a bit better, and stands out a lot more than standard. Plus it does the cool alternating flash when the car is locked/unlocked too.

Class. Could this be done to a mk3 leon?

Nice job with the indicators there. Looks great with current wheels, but sometimes a change doesn’t do any harm

If you want to see them in the flesh......


The colour is odd, sometimes they look silver, sometimes grey, I’m still not 100% sold tbh, although I love the wheels and the finish is superb

All set for winter now and this is as clean as it will be until after Christmas.

4 x new Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4s fitted, and a de-tarring, wash, polish and 2 coats of Fusso yesterday.

Very impressed with the Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4s. Living in an area where the roads don’t get gritted or anything, and you’re basically driving on a thick sheet of ice when conditions are like the way they are this morning.

The car felt secure and stable when driving. I had Nokian WR A3 winters on my old car, so it is a bit like comparing apples and oranges. But the Michelin’s do feel more secure, and and less squirmy on the road.

Definite thumbs up from me.

Good to hear about the Michelins. Tossing between a set of Michelins or Continentals for my Golf come spring.

Small update - picked up a set of red GTI badges for grille and boot. Ill get these on the next time I decide to clean the car. They should look much better against the white paint than the ones which are currently on.
