Basically my car has been off the road for nearly 18 months after having a bump. Due to family and work commitments the time has passed and now I'm now wanting to get car back on the road.
Problem is I'm struggling to stay motivated. So thinking if you guys could post your favourite pis of you car it might give me the kick up the arse I require.

So here's my favourite

It's more the fact that its a 5 mile drive to where I have it in a garage so it a mission just to get out there before work starts.

Yours just seems to keep getting better and venture down new routes while mine just sits there

Haha glad they nearly got to you lol. :)

Tucker you car looks awesome on thos different wheels. You still got the other 4 wheels lol

Yup, I have both full sets. Haha

it started when I hit a pot hole and cherryed a sidewall on a 100 quid tyre with 6mm on it! so stuck a spare rim and tyre on, wanted to see what it was like with the silver multi spoke, then decided to put two on, got a tyre swapped over and I've left it that way since... Must be knocking on 10 months plus now haha guy at the tyre place had a good laugh that it was two different sets of wheels,

I prefer the lighter colour but I'm a 5 spoke lover at heart! Would like mo5's or 6's possibly.

Before any comments are made... The black pro race's have different spacers to the cupra r oz's to ensure they are the same offset! Didn't want any dodgy handling with different offset on different sides, I do push it quite hard when I want to.

I lost total motivation in my car after painting the full car (colour change) and the drivers door reacted.

I took a week and got back at it, just think of it as being therapeutic and it will. People HATE sanding wheels and body parts. Where as I love it.
