Well after 6 years of ownership i thought today i would start my own thread.

Brought car for £5k with 50k mileage back in in July 2006 from Seat dealership in middlesbrough.

Car was totally standard apart from wolfrace alloys, Ebc brakes disc's & pads along with supersprint backbox.


It came with 2years warranty which was 1 of the main reasons i went for it but i
didnt have the car for more than a month before my turbo went :cry:

Thanks to my warranty car went to Seat for brand new turbo :D

Bill came to £1200 :rofl: ......which i didnt pay :whistle:

With that out the way i actually started to enjoy my new car lol

Next it was off to the tint shop & i ordered some wind deflectors..... to be continued.......

Looks nice mate any plans?

Thanks mate, Hybrid treatment is on the books, just collecting parts at the minute.

Looking good!! Would love one of these but cant justify it.

Thats good you got the turbo fixed without even having to pay for it :thumbup:


Yeh i so happy i didnt pay to get it fixed. Turbo has done over 100k mileage now & still boost hard like a mofo. Soon to be treated to some goodness though :rolleyes:
