Thanks for the comments.
Ben, Had to have a 1.0 mate as its my first car so had to think practically.

future plans for it are:
- Lowered on Gmax springs and shocks
- GSi boot spoiler
- Alloy Wheels, Possibly gunmetal cav slabs
- Pioneer head unit (got ready to fit at the weekend)
- Exhaust System
- colour coded bumbers

Plus more

Tbh the guys gone out and bought a car at 16. That more that can be said for most people. Good on you mate. Plans sound good . Dont forget the clear indicators and badgeless grille . Looks like a good base car to start with and looks nice and clean.

Leave the guy alone. If he chooses not to delcare the modifcations, then thats his own loss.

I've never heard of a cvase where someone was refused a repair because it had a different splitter on the bumper, or because a car was lowered.

Welcome to CS.

I know you have your mind (wallet) set on Gmax springs and shocks. But they are bad. Save up some more and invest in an Eibach kit. Yes it costs more, but you'll thank me.

And your car looks really clean. Good buy there.

Don't worry about the speed. Or what to do to the engine to make it faster. Save up some NCD's. Then spend your money on what ever engine you want coz you'll be able to insure it.
