lol well ive got two foglamps now instead of one but thats about it.

hit a dead animal yesterday with enough force to yank the handbrake cable out of its support near the lever and the splitter didnt break or anything so thats definatly tight.

got a email off elabourus saying he had put my car on the homepage of his blog with mannnnny other centos.
here

all good really. ive got some new things on order so ill see what pans out before any more pics :p
 
lol. unsure atm. no massive gains likely just bits and bats. want a 1.4 someone give me one dammit lol. or a 300 c&b gifted to me with some 4 pot callipers and bmc :) hint hint
 
right put it back on the road as i needed it with nothing major changed.

im having a grandad moment though. as much as i love the sei i want something else (aswell) but money not allowing instead.

anyone have any views on subaru forester the older 2000 plate? 2.0 turbo with awd. seems win win to me. im not looking fror no you must keep the sei comments just reviews on that atm lool. the sei will be staying if i can make it work
 
an impreza estate is a stupid thing, have you looked in the back of one, theres no space at all, the wheel-arches go far too far into the loadspace. can't really comment on a forester as never been in one or looked at one really - they look strong and have the rep to match. What brings on the desire for bigger car?
 
i dont want to sell the sei. it will more than likely be staying.

and im currently snowed in my house by the smallest amount of snow lol. and after it taking 13 hours to return home on sunday i want a awd or something more comfie to relax in lol.

pluss ive been offered a forester for pennies.
 
ah so it AWD you want.. tbh mate sounds a bit over the top, its just a little bit of snow - if you took your alloys off and stuck some skinny steelies on it'd cope much better ;) pick a set up for pennies. They are just too small and light to be on wide tyres in the snow. I guess there be more hills round your way than mine though, Vale of York be pretty flat.

If its just for getting around in the snow i'd say get a little off roader like a 90's suzuki samurai or vitara, they are much better than people give them credit for with proper high/low range awd or rwd - cheap as chips and smiles all round. And you end up with another fun little toy and not an old man car.
 
well nah its more just a problem free every day car. (trips to uni across lakes). just sold a 106 and loved having another car. been offered a forester cheap... really cheap so just wanted a review. snow not really a problem tbh ill just stay in but i also have trips to scotland alot snowboarding ect and i could do them without renting :p.
