Took some pics. In true cs fashion the car has been cleaned so i thought i would post. Since getting the car a couple of weeks back, i have rebadged it and had a sound system installed. Ignore the me in the car pic For some reason you can never look good posing in or next to your own car

morrettes look gay.
Sound system shakes head... 
106 gti's = Light therefore quick. you don't want poxy subs making the car heavy now. Get it out! and strip it while your there 
I gave my mates a lift to thorpe park the other day, not only did I feel a chav with 4 blokes crammed in a tiny french hatchback, but also ruined acceleration and handling... Rear felt like it was sitting 100mm down 
I'm getting my rear seats back out ASAP.

not brilliant, but it's due to the weather. At night time it seems to fly, during the day it's dog slow - think I'm gonna replace the whole induction system.
the idling revs have been steadily rising, when he mapped it it idled at 900-1000 rpm, now its 1100-1200 rpm all the time, but no prob's probably also the weather.
My radiator is shagged at the moment and is losing most of its coolant I've got another radiator but need to find time to change it / get it changed.
Also the exhaust system is blowing like a bitch (as it always has).
I need to seal exhaust up, get new engine mount, new clutch (as its slipping still), sort out the induction with better induction piping (not metal) and air feeds, and change the radiator. THEN it'll hopefully run nicely

I like the wheels because i think they look unique, of course its no the only 106 to have them but i haven't seen another with them and that suits me. I may go for a wheel change at another date but for now, I'm sticking As for the critics on the sound system, everyone likes to and drives differently. I respect you guys for stripping your cars out to reduce weight and enhance performance, but i like my creature comforts too much. and for me, i like the stereo with nice sounds coming out. Having it stripped out and driving it as an everyday car would almost certainly mean the noise would get to me in the end
