Picked up my new FR TDI 3 weeks ago, moved from a 1.4tdi ibiza to an FR and there a big difference, very impressed and the dealer was quick to sort out my minor niggles with the car. All in all very pleased, (just gotta try and post some pictures up now)



going to try and post some other pictures up later

about a week to ship it, cant get black wheels, tried getting them off my old car but the rims are buckled on the rear end of the car, as the rear end of the car has gone, (it about a foot and half shorter on one side) like an ibiza compact lol

:headhurt: Sounds nasty.

I'm sure your getting some nice compo for the whiplash...spend a bit of that getting the wheels done black!

Did you get any pics of your black one after the shortening operation?

Im thinking about de-badging the car again not sure though as it seems to suit the silver one more than the black
