Talking Clean & ready for Derby bash :)

Having decided that I will be taking the Stilo and NOT the 'venga' bus to the Derby xmas bash, decided to give it a quick pressure wash 'n' wax

Not sure what state it will be in once it gets to the pub, but at least I tried.

Oh, and I had a haircut as well

Re: Clean & ready for Derby bash :)

Yep, it is now on Eibach springs, which has dropped it about 35mm. The car was also laser-tracked, which showed up a lot of faults.

The CDA is awesome - works very well with the remap, so possibly up to about 190bhp - the midrange is now even better than before, and makes me smile every time I drive it. Jules is still a bit scared to put her foot down in it, but give her time.

Re: Clean & ready for Derby bash :)

I agree, its got a classy look to it and looks better lowered If you're planning on getting bigger alloys for it, get some that are a similiar dark colour to the existing wheels- they suit the body colour well

Re: Clean & ready for Derby bash :)

Thanks guys - I know the 5 door generally comes in for a lot of slating, but hey, I can live with it [I will set Jules on you otherwise ]

Yes Gaz, it is my driveway

WR, I was thinking of getting 17s, but for the mo will keep on the 16s - I do a lot of driving, and don't want the ride quality to suffer any more - the springs are a definite help though.

Thumbs up Re: Clean & ready for Derby bash :)

Hi Stu, the car looks great,(ive got a five dr aswell, same col)
You must get the 17's on it, it makes the car look completely different.
I had some fiat 5 spoke 17's put on last week, and it looks great especially when its lowered.(sorry have not any pics, cos I need to buy a digi cam)

Re: Clean & ready for Derby bash :)

I am tempted by 17s, just haven't got that amount of money burning a hole in my pocket atm.

I have already forked out for remap, CDA, springs, plus fitting costs, etc. Maybe next year.

Lets hope Santa gets you a nice digicam
